I blame the democrats and the RINOS with all their “Corn Subsidies” which have made it fashionable for the big agribusinesses who are in bed with government to push their Corn Sugar on everybody and artifically pushing the regular sugar growers (sugar beet and sugar cane) growers out of the market.
The regular sugar growers (sugar beet and sugar cane) growers priced themselves out of the market. Their lobby in DC got their cronies in Congress to basically exclude foreign sugar from the American market in order to maximize their own monopoly. If we paid the 'world price' for sugar, Cokes and candy bars would still be a quarter...........
