It’s a long way from Colombia to Columbus.Initially the banks didn't want our RUBBER SHEET .
But cocaine finds a way, from the farmer’s field to the dealer’s corner.we supply all kinds of polished tiles, And between the farmer trying to feed his family and the crackhead feeding his addiction, a lot of people make a lot of money.
It’s a multinational trade, ranging the Western Hemisphere as far as from Peru to Canada, as not all the cocaine that comes into the United States stops here. Some keeps going.
As it goes north, cash goes south. But just as an addict gets only so much cocaine, the farmer at the other end gains only so much profit.
The money is in the middle -- in the cartels and corrupt governments that siphon off the growers, manage the manufacturing and protect shipments from South to North America, bloodying the United States-Mexico border with battles over major crossings; the in-country smugglers who take it from there; and the dealers who dole it out.
Here in the states, cocaine is distributed much like any other product in demand -- along major travel routes, from those thinning out like the strands of a spider web.
America’s war-on-drugs mentality tends to view the fight against cocaine as a battle against the drug itself,Do not use cleaners with Wholesale pet supplies , steel wool or thinners. but eradicating the drug here in the United States essentially means dismantling an economic system, according to Paul Gootenberg, author of “Andean Cocaine: The Making of a Global Drug.”
Gootenberg says cocaine now is part of the global economy, a product imported not only in the United States, but also in Europe and elsewhere.
Cocaine is a purified form of an alkaloid found in the leaves of the coca plant, which the natives of the Andes Mountains of South America have used for centuries. Chewing coca leaves or brewing them in tea is common practice, in some cultures, and U.S. drug interdiction efforts aimed at criminalizing it have provoked resentment.
Though Andeans were well aware of the energizing effects, coca use elsewhere remained a curiosity, attracting little international attention until around 1860, when a German chemist extracted the alkaloid, cocaine hydrochloride. A Frenchman added it to wine.
The elite became enamored with the drug’s medicinal properties. It was touted as a cure for fatigue, pain, alcoholism, morphine addiction and other ailments.
When Columbus native John Pemberton incorporated it into his Coca-Cola precursor “French Wine Coca,” his elixir was promoted as miraculous.
An 1885 ad in the Atlanta publication “The Southern World” proclaimed: “The wonderful invigorator and health restorer conduces to mental calmness and activity, freedom from all nervous troubles, dissipates the blues, leaving the mind calm and contented: destroys the craving for alcohol, invigorates the exhausted sexual organs, restores all the nerve force, vim and vigor of youth.”
Said an ad in “The Weekly Constitution”: “Cures diseases of the BRAIN and NERVES, called Neuralgia, Epilepsy, Fainting Fits, Paralysis … loss of appetite,the worldwide rubber hose market is over $56 billion annually. weight of fullness under left breast and stomach, nausea, flatulence, costiveness, diarrhea,As many processors back away from Cable Ties , palpitation of the heart, dizziness, pain in the head, despondency, peevishness, irritability, general debility, and cold feet. PEMBERTON’S FRENCH WINE COCA is the medical wonder of the world.”
