Tax payer benefits? (none / 0)
While the world is sometimes far too bleak for me, I will try to search for a bright side ...

Will rising global sugar prices lessen the pressure (requirement) for sugar subsidies, which are a reasonably serious drain on the US treasury and which also have an impact in the EU?

Re: Tax payer benefits? (4.00 / 2)
Yes. Note that Europe has just decided to seriously slash the subsidies it gives to its sugar producers.
