Cocaine - Viva La Coca Part 1

I do not own any rights, parts, and or such to the making and creators of this television program. All rights are respectively of Channel 4 Productions.
Enjoi!

The first programme in the series takes viewers into the world of the Peruvian coca farmers, who are totally dependent on the paltry money they make from growing coca leaves, and the cocaine-makers, who turn the leaves into 'dandruff of the Andes.'

I'm so tired of people destroying their lives with addiction, and then blaming it on the drug. It's their own fault.

[nelrock102]

wit out that one plant people do not suffer there this is there life for years the incas never got sick and died untill the spanierds came and killed them all just like the peruvin and us goverment plan not to eradicate but to kill not by destroying the coca crops but the crops that they live on is that strange or what

[greenroomdude]

@greenroomdude ...Plan Colombia...Beehive Collective...look it up.

[greenroomdude]

@dawnmarko1...where is the number one place that cocaine is exported to? The US....who is fighteing the WAR ON DRUGS? the US....

[dawnmarko1]

@greenroomdude

Tell ya what.

Why dont you contact the Peruvian government and tell them to legalize coca farming?

That would be a good place to start instead of blaming the US first.

[greenroomdude]

@dawnmarko1 ...Did you know that in places like these Coca cola is cheaper than drinking water? Did you know that the US trained militas to Kick out the native farmers from their land....did you know that Agricultural companies, like chiquita banana, took over all of their land? did you know that Monsanto is making it impossible fro these farmers to even buy seeds? BP, DYnCorp....so who is really to blame?

[dawnmarko1]

@greenroomdude

Why is the US getting the blame for the crop erradication?

The Peruvian government says its illegal.

The Peruvian government initializes the crop killing.

The Peruvian government allows the US tho help enforce their OWN laws.

Sure. Blame the US.

@greenroomdude

Fine.

Lets only use it for MEDICINE....

[greenroomdude]

@dawnmarko1 no...i didnt say that. The US sells alcohol and tabacco laced with chemicals... shouldnt another country stop them from selling alcohol and tabacco because it kills people?....they should be allowed? they have been growing coca leaves since the incas..used for MEDICINE....

[dawnmarko1]

@greenroomdude

so what you are saying is that they should be allowed to sell cocaine regardless of how it impacts other people?
