Low Carbs vs High Fructose

The recent spate of low carb craziness has hit the refiners of high fructose corn syrup hard. After all, if carbs are bad and refined carbs are worse, then a double-refined carb, like sugar refined from cornstarch, must be the Hitler of carbs. If only they could drive their product in another direction, take advantage of another source of demand, receive government subsidies to do so and demand more money for their product. No chance of that happening, right?
