Time for Iowans to embrace ethanol

To the editor:
Iowa's economy benefits with ethanol. Corn prices are so low that some farmers are only breaking even, we are losing jobs at John Deere, Case, etc.
Perhaps opponents of ethanol don't realize that hundreds of NASCAR and other races use ethanol because it is clean burning. Some of the races have 43 cars running 400 miles, for months, plus practice.
So if you want to pay 30 cents more a gallon, use regular.
Help our farmers.
