Because you always have it in a container, you can't just leave a pile of sugar in your kitchen drawer expecting nothing to happen to it.
True, but here's more.
Sugar has a moisture content of about 2/100ths of a percent, way too low for bacteria to survive. As long as it is kept dry it will remain unspoiled.
Yes. Sugar can support mold. This is more likely to occur if there are complex carbohydrates present, like flour or bread crumbs.
Sugar is a mineral, therefor the bacteria or mold can't set. It's the same reason why you don't see moldy diamonds or rubies.
