Bolivia announces a new era without capitalism or Coca-Cola


Bolivia has begun in the countdown to the end of the Coca-Cola , at least for consumption in the country, set for December 21, 2012. The decision "will be in line with the end of the Mayan calendar and will be part of the celebrations to mark the end of capitalism and the beginning of the culture of life", as quoted Foreign Minister, David Choquehuanca . Bolivian Foreign Minister's statement, the ideologue of the Aymara world view - trying to print in the thinking of government - has had as scenario the religious town of Copacabana with a sanctuary and a pre-Columbian astronomical observatory on the shores of Lake Titicaca, suitable to talk about a new era: the end of one period and the beginning of another auspicious in line with the Mayan prophecies and the series of related films and feared a possible end of the world. "On December 21, 2012 is the end of selfishness, division, on December 21 must be the end of the Coca-Cola, and the beginning of mocochinche (soft peach). The planets are aligned after 26,000 years, "said the chancellor to say that this is a very important date for the planet. Choquehuanca, who accompanied President Evo Morales to inaugurate construction of an airport in Copacabana to promote tourism, pointed out that, to the Mayan calendar "must end the macha , we are in the surf clam , darkness. It's the end of hatred and the beginning of love is the end of capitalism and is the beginning of the Pacha , love, communitarianism, "referring to a form of fraternal cooperation between the Indians were accustomed to plant highland, harvest and work for the common good. The serious threat that hangs over those addicted to Coca-Cola has already led to estimates of the cost of painful change, but the popular drink flag of capitalism has advantages when it comes to prices. A two-liter bottle worth equivalent to 65 euro cents. In contrast, the same amount of dried peach boiled reaches a euro and 20 cents. To make matters worse, the "long drink" more required in this country is the "Cuba Libre" based on a Caribbean rum with ice and lots of Coca-Cola probably would not matter if it is replaced with moccochinche or wilcaparu agüita of a purple corn boiled with milk is intended for the upbringing of infants. The Foreign Ministry noted that the end of the Coca-Cola has been more of a symbolism used by the Minister Choquehuanca to highlight the completion of an era, as the Mayan calendar. However, for December 21 has scheduled a big gathering of Indians from the five continents which will stage the Isla del Sol, in the Bolivian side of Titicaca where according to legend, came Manco Kapac and Mama Ocllo that later from Macchu Pichu, organized the empire of the Incas. Meanwhile, in Cochabamba and La Paz and circulate bottles of cola-based coca, caffeine and carbonated water, and more international as Coca-Energy, which are intended to gain markets and oust the drink is flag of capitalism.
