    2 lol just the water ?? try the gas the oil the food and in some town even the air was toxic and the mines unsafe, child slavery was rampant and the cocacin industry was the only source of work, I guess the CIA, USA and UK would rather have a king as the one in southarabia to control the wealth, rather then cheer Evo Morales for his accomplishments when compared to many nation USA and UK do support. in my opinion this report is trash.
