Problem with that reasoning is, you're not even close to being short on food, neither am I, neither is anyone else in the US. We clearly have excess production capacity for food. Nevermind poor countries that can't afford to import, they need to ramp up production, not receive more aid. The beauty of using food crop to make ethanol is the crop is easy to grow and cheap. That said the process is still pretty inefficient and everyone would love to see some improvement in yield, especially from corn.
