The U.S. Government Is So Evil
May 19, 2015
Since 1994, the U.S. government has spent more than $2 billion so that Colombian police planes can spray fields of coca leaves to destroy them so they can’t be used to make cocaine. The equally-evil Colombian government will phase out the program because of health concerns about the herbicide used to kill the coca leaves, not because it is destroying private property. “The program is dear to the hearts of U.S. officials because they helped invent it.” Truly, the war on drugs is a war on health, property, and freedom.
