FWIW, oil production is subsidized, too. Oil depletion allowances, etc.
You'd have to do some research to find out exactly how much oil production is subsidized, as compared to ethanol.
If ethanol has no other benefit than paying American farmers instead of Middle East oil sheiks, well, that seems like a major benefit to me.
