Yes but spread this investment among all types of alternate fuel/power sources. Also use it to pay for nuclear power.

So you'd like to keep our current oil guzzling system and get even more fucked when Peak Oil hits(if it hasn't already hit yet)? As things stand America is pretty much a petro state(as in if the oil supply got disrupted we'd be in for BAD times for at least a decade until we retooled our energy supply/infrastructure)...

Ethanol? We're not going to have one single silver bullet. Invest into hybrids, electric vehicles, hydrogen vehicles, nuclear power, public transportation AND ethanol.

A tak of 9,000% needs to be applied to gas in the states south of the mason dixon line and Utah because the feds can. Plus death penalties for both the violators and their families to make sure nobody smuggles in gas illegaly.
