Ethanol subsidy expires; local effect unknown Hooray for some fiscal responsibility! Congress allowed a $6 billion corn subsidy to expire and a tariff on Brazilian ethanol to die with it. This is good for several reasons. *Firstly, with our massive deficit and national debt, cutting wasteful spending should be a priority and this is a biggie in terms of uselessness. $6 billion is a drop in the bucket as far as cutting spending is concerned, but one has to start somewhere. After all, many drops and the bucket is filled. :)
