re: I never knew that our gov't propped up the price of sugar.

Big time. Huge political contributions from the sugar industry to politicians. They get the "sweetest" deal in agriculture; pun intended. It's another crooked Florida thing.

But if you are going to subsidize them, might as well do it for an ethanol end product... something that does the country much more good than sugar.
