It's also against the law to ship and transport the chemicals needed to process the coca into cocaine. With out these chemicals, no cocaine can be produced. All I'm saying is that it would be a far saner policy to restrict and interdict these chemicals used in the process than it is to spray the farmers with chemicals that not only kills the coca, it also kills their food crops and it makes the children sick. It's a nutzo program. It only gets a small portion of the total coca production anyway, and all it does it drive up the price the drug lords are willing to pay for the coca, which give the farmers greater incentive to grow coca. If you want to stop the cocaine business you can be much more effective by controlling the chemicals needed to refine it. Why are we not doing that? Orca
