Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez has been pretty vocal about his love of chewing coca leaves, which have a stimulating effect similar to a cup of coffee. While chewing the leaves, a gift from Bolivian President Evo Morales, at a summit meeting [Ed. note: Isn't this kind of unprofessional? People always complain when I chew gum or smoke crack or smack babies at Guanabee meetings. Unfair.], Chavez declares that capitalism is at fault for the production and sale of cocaine which is, as you’re probably aware, made from processed coca leaves. But, you know. The way this stuff works is that for someone to buy something, someone else has to sell it. Trivial details. Anyway, Huey. Our place Saturday? Bring some “hojas sagradas.” And Naomi.

    In selling to a viable market, the coca growers are just being global competitors in this system called Capitalism. So I suggest you stop it with the double standard. Because if coca was that big of a concern, then you’d also be vying for Vicodin to be illegal…or something like that.
