Can I use Raw sugarwith out molasses for hummingbird nectar?
Yes. I have done this several times, and the hummingbirds loved it. Just make sure that the sugar has completely dissolvedbefore you put it out for the birds. Because of their size, a hummingbird could easily choke on a grain of sugar if it was not dissolved.
Is a hummingbird an omnivore?
They feed on the nectar of plants and are important pollinators. However, contrary to popular belief, they at times will eat insects, and collect insects when feeding their young. So they are omnivores.
Why would it be bad if bees stopped collecting nectar to make honey?
Bees collect nectar from flowers. Since one flower has very little nectar, a bee needs to go from flower to flower collecting a little nectar in each blossom. Bees neither notice nor care about pollen, but when they dive into a flower to collect nectar, they are also brushing against the stamens and pistils of the bloom, tracking pollen from blossom to blossom. Stamens and pistils are the sex organs of plants, and pollen is the way plants fertilize each other. So without bees to carry pollen around to the flowers, the flowers wouldn't get fertilized, the plants wouldn't set any fruit, and we'd all starve to death. (and eventually, the plants wouldn't reproduce either.) Well, that's an exaggeration; the wind can also blow pollen from flower to flower, but that's much less efficient than when bees to it.
