The Florida Roundup: Big Sugar's Hold On Florida, Venezuelan Crisis & Bahamas' Travel Advisory

Associated Press
Peple stand in line to buy some food in a supermarket in Caracas, Venezuela.

This week on The Florida Roundup...

Sugar is big business in Florida. And that means millions are going to lawmakers to protect those interests. But, is there a cost - especially to the environment?

Also, how much deeper can the troubles in Venezuela go? Is the country reaching a tipping point?

Plus, the Bahamas is warning its residents to be careful when traveling to the U.S. It’s related to the police violence in recent weeks. How should visitors think of our police...and is law enforcement here really anywhere near as bad as it is in other countries...like the Bahamas?

Listen to the full show below: 

Correction: During the original broadcast the host said  that we had contacted both US Sugar and Florida Crystals. But, that was a mistake. We contacted to US Sugar only, not Florida Crystals. US Sugar did not respond to our request to come on the show. We apologize for that mistake and we will again invite either company to join us for a conversation on the air.
