Colombia: Contraband Gas Sellers Demand Government Assistance

A group of contraband gasoline sellers marched in the Colombian border city of Cucuta on Thursday to demand that the government create job opportunities for them. They presented social and economic reform packages to help them now that they are no longer able to sell contraband gasoline smuggled from Venezuela. They insisted that the Colombian government is responsible for the border crisis and also responsible for their own desperate economic situation. teleSUR
