PROTECTIONISM BUMP!
The sugar beet farmers in the Dakotas and western Minnesota send their sincere thanks...
If you spent as much time in Hawaii as I did and saw just how depressed the the economy was due to a lack of sugar jobs you'd understand. Those jobs, which were present in the years prior to the 1990s, were high paying jobs which a person could support a family on. Now the only jobs one can look forward to is low-wage travel jobs. The same can be said for the pineapple industry. I don't think there is any commercial pineapple canning jobs in Hawaii anymore due to our failed trade policies.
