when these substances are only empty calories, which cause people to physically and psychologically crave more food since their cells are starving for real nutrients. These additives cause people to crave more of the same empty calories--they taste and smell good--so they are sort of addictive. The result is malnutrition.
So the corporations are falsely advertising these substances as being food staples, sugar should not be eaten with every meal 24/7--instead should be an occasional treat or in much smaller amounts.
I am sure most people agree with all of this--but the argument is not whether HFCS is like sugar or not, it is that many additives, either by themselves or in combination with other substances appear to be highly addictive. If our natural instincts were intact, wouldn't we be craving what our bodies need? I wonder about these things (not providing a link here, just my opinions and observations).
Wishing you and everyone here health and long life 
I actually respect people at mealtime...but feel strongly about nutrition.
