I don't think 15% of drivers will give up driving real quick. I could see people putting the gas on there credit cards in hopes of feeding their lifestyle that they have so much invested in.
Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas couldn't produce enough corn to supply 15% of the current US demand, especially if we want to continue eating beef.

Not to mention the small detail that ethanol is no solution to the greenhouse gas issue.
