Why did the US support sugar planters in the attempt to overthrow Queen Liluokalani?

The US overthrew Liliuokalani because she did not keep the treaty that the former leader of Hawaii had with the planters. This treaty stated that the planters could plant sugar crops in Hawaii. When Liliuokalani came to power she was anti-american and did not want the planters there, so the americans overthrew her. Basically, the reason was money - the US wanted to control the sugar plantations in Hawaii and they wanted to exploit the native population.
