This isn't meant to be a discussion on the morality of the embargo, but the affects of the embargo ending for both countries. These affects can be political, economic, or social.

Corn syrup is mainly cheap because of the huge subsidies, putting that money to better use supporting veggie or fruit production would make us all a lot healthier

    It'll still be cheap and easy to use without the subsidies, since it's not like we're going to stop growing the corn even if it's more expensive. Lowering the price of healthier foods will do a lot of good, but there's also the part where people need to change their tastes.
    We just like food that's too sweet.
