may be because the crew is too poor. The dignified Latin America's largest drug lord was actually performed like a street underworld boss. Thousands of private armed and armed helicopters did not appear. A colonel commanded a search. The team can force him to hide. In fact, in order to get rid of him, Colombia dispatched thousands of navy, land, and air forces with the support of American agents, and finally defeated Pablo's private armed forces with the regular army's approach to the armed forces.
In reality, Pablo doesn't need to go to the stadium to recruit a kid. In the vast slums of Bogota and Medellin, there are young people willing to work for him. They couldn't find a job and worked for the drug lords, but they had a good way out.
Because the drug lords really make money. When Pablo was alive, he was Colombia's largest "export trader", but what he exported was a bit of a headache, and that was cocaine. Every year, billions of dollars of cocaine are smuggled into the United States through his hands. He confidently said, "We are nothing more than satisfying tens of millions of American addicts," and even from a trade perspective, he is "helping Colombia earn foreign exchange and reverse the huge trade deficit."
Before corrupt officials around the world, the Latin American drug cartel headed by Pablo was the world's largest dollar "hoarder". Tens of billions of dollars flowed into Latin America from the United States and were bought underground or laundered by them. The Fed will not cause domestic inflation if it starts the money printing press. It really benefits from these drug dealers who like to bury their money.
When Pablo was killed, Colombia lost its most "advantageous" "export commodities", and its annual trade deficit reached tens of billions of dollars.
In the beginning, Colombian drugs were only a problem for Americans. Drug dealers love money and are more willing to make "business". But in the face of the rush of drugs and the outflow of tens of billions of dollars each year, the U.S. imperialism still could not sit still, dispatching special agents and political pressure to cut off the source of Latin American drugs. This was also the beginning of the "War on Drugs" that lasted for more than 30 years. Latin American countries such as Colombia and Mexico have since become battlefields. Drug dealers and military police are fighting on the streets, a de facto civil war.
It is easy that both drug dealers and politicians in Latin American countries believe that the proliferation of drugs and the civil war are caused by the US imperialism. American addicts need drugs, American politicians need Latin American backyards, and large American companies use Latin America as a place for commodity dumping and a source of raw materials, and “squeeze” Latin America.
Especially for the latter, the left-wing rebels in Latin America and some economists and officials actually reached an "ideological consensus." The left-wing guerrillas under the guidance of M. Kesi thought armed to overthrow the "U.S. imperial lackey" government, while government officials erected trade and industry barriers to try to offset the impact of the U.S. imperialist economy.
At the beginning of the last century, Privish put forward the "periphery-center" theory, "proving" that the developed countries in the center "squeezed" the developing countries exporting primary products by relying on their technological advantages. The solution he proposed was "support National industry". This idea has been supported by Latin American economics, politics, and business circles. Under the guidance of this pirated "Liszt Economic Thought", Latin American countries have introduced import substitution policies, established high tariff barriers, industry license systems, strong labor laws, and minimum wage systems. In addition to the Central Economic Planning Bureau, these countries The economic policy of China is no different from that of a socialist country. Under these policies, even if the left-wing guerrillas come to power, they cannot be more left.
These seemingly beneficial economic policies for the poor have brought Latin America into a state of unrest. Trade protectionism and the licensing system have not only caused Latin America to miss out on industrial transfers from developed countries, making Asia the world’s factory, but more importantly, domestic industries have always been monopolized, with high prices and poor quality, no competitiveness, insufficient jobs, and labor laws. And the minimum wage system makes companies more reluctant to absorb employment. This system has created wealth and power in the industrial and commercial industries that are closely related to government officials, attracting and corrupting officials, and the poor will never be able to find a job.
Poverty is a hotbed of civil war. Angry young people who have nothing to join either the left-wing guerrillas or the drug dealers have no choice.
Privish may not have thought of this at all.
In the film, Pablo was just a smuggler at first. The existence of smuggling must be due to high tariffs and trade barriers. The price difference between the two countries is the driving force behind smuggling. The trade policy established by the Privishes is the engine of the smuggler Pablo. Armed anti-smuggling will prompt smugglers to confront armed forces, and profit is the best reason to resist. This is highly similar to the causes of the "Japanese pirate war" in Chinese history.
Smugglers started smuggling electrical appliances. If they find that drug smuggling is more profitable, then they smuggle drugs.
Economic policy is far more terrifying than political policy-the morality and legality of political policy can be seen at a glance, which can be understood by human moral perception and judgment; while economic policy is not, economic policy is often "counter-intuitive" In many cases, people think that economic policies are well-intentioned, but will lead to extremely bad consequences, and the people who propose and support them do not realize that it is their kindness that drives everyone to suicide.
It does not matter whether Pablo is alive or dead. The important thing is that in Latin America, no one realizes that it is his own policy that created Pablo and the left-wing guerrillas. Even the priests believe in " "Liberation Theology" took up arms, and the left-wing thoughts and God came together wonderfully.
This is the magic realism of Latin America.
