The term "synthetic" is a misnomer. It's more like genetic engineering...they just manipulate the oil's carbon chains to maximize its lubrication, and longevity. It's still starts as crude....
And if the gov't put more effort into creating an E85-capable infrastructure...this would all be a non-issue....but that makes too much sense.
