I was really thinking of "the fuel of the future" a bit yesterday and how our world could have been completely different if vehicles were designed to use an alcohol based fuel that could be made by anyone, or bought from farmers/sources who could make large quantities of it.
Corporations wouldn't let that be a thing at all, but it is interesting because alcohol, as a fuel, is extremely useful.
Instead, nowadays, we drink it and get rekt...wtf happened?
Imagine how much money people would save if they could make their own fuel...logistics would be a nightmare having to haul it around, but a network of fuel stations on the roadways could help...just like we have now, but without such corporate involvement.
