Most of them are just hard working, business minded, family oriented men... Just like any other highly motivated man with grit.

The difference being, they didn't have silver spoon fed success, and connections by birth. They had to do whatever they had to do, to get the position of getting their hands on that well greased money.

A few groups are bad yes, and they escalate things to those excessive levels that give them all a bad name.

There are two sides to every story. That's like America did in, "Planned Columbia." We essentially gave military aid to the largest drug dealer in the nation- but why? B/c he was at least playing ball with the US, and investing/laundering money through Wall Street like he was told to do... But his competitors were not exactly, "pro America..." So we had to side with the lesser of the two evils.

It's not like Columbia can really support itself with coffee, and at least this way they can be an added benefit for everyone involved. The US gets its cocaine and under the table currency/liquid money moving machine, Columbia carries its own weight to survival, and Uncle Sam whistles while he lets this one slide on by.
