Because corn syrup is a poison to your body but they have fooled everyone to believe it is a safe alternative to cane sugar. They did this because they want to kill you but not have you or you loved one know why you died.
The actual answer is that the US government has contracts with several outfits to produce (and be in current production to tap into when needed) enough corn mash to create the amount of alcohol to drive enough military machines in case of a hot war. Prediction: when they ramp up the sugar beets, they will abandon the corn and you will see the same equivalent to "corn syrup" but with sugar beets.
Exactly. But he claimed it's because of "profit over people." But you are never going to change that. You have to look at the incentives you give people in a profit chasing landscape. Considering that the government has warped and altered this landscape in a negative way is beyond these people. Also beyond these people is considering that ending that is often as simple as doing one less thing through government. You just have to find the one thing. Instead they want all companies everywhere for all time to never seek a profit.
Which is easier, asking a large number of people to adopt your abstract values despite it being 100% against their incentives and demanding that all do it universally, or government doing one less thing?
