So what's their deal? You would think that if you were Communist, unless you could get coffee grown in Cuba, maybe, the next best thing would be coffee grown in such a manner to benefit small scale growers and the rights of workers, such as they are in the coffee industry. Are they so anti-trade that they consider any regulation somehow worse because it makes revolution less likely? Are they simply hypocrites?
