Ted Cruz Woos Iowa Ag Summit With Principled Anti-Ethanol Subsidy StanceHe says the same about wind, sugar and other subsidies. Instead he promises to ease taxes and regulation to allow industries to find their own path to prosperity.

I so admire Ted Cruz for taking a principled stand against ethanol subsidies and to propose a better, conservative solution to assist Iowa businesses with less government. Taking this stand publicly at an Iowa Ag Summit is more evidence of his integrity. It's really gratifying to see he received great applause from the crowd for his honesty.
Cruz campaign: "Ted Cruz is straightforward about what he believes, whether he is in Iowa, Texas, or Washington DC. We need more leaders who tell the truth about what they will do and the response to that kind of honesty is very positive."
Subsidies only ease the symptoms but don’t cure the disease.
