I should add, that cheaper corn also makes the things that eat corn cheaper. That doesn't mean those things are healthy.
The power structure / status quo is based on stability. Hunger / starvation of the masses tends to bring about instability. The point is, the food system is NOT driven by health (of the masses or the environment for that matter). It's driven by Food X's ability to starve off starvation (and associated unrest). That is, just because you're eating what's been normalized doesn't mean it's ideal for your health.
