I agree (perhaps not as strongly as so very wrong), but more in the sense that it does seem counter-intuitive to use land not to produce food for people but fuel for cars instead.There's something so very wrong about growing grain for making petrol/diesel instead of using it to help feed people........
I know what a starving person in a 3rd world country would value more.Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
