Let's see, arrangements are in place with the USA, the UK, Brazil and next should be Spain. Those are probably the top four consumers of cocaine (total consumption and/or per capita) and Colombia is probably number five. That's what I call an integrated supply chain and a never-ending war on drugs. I need to invest in bullets and speed boat motors.
