Mexico’s only real chance is to raise a middle finger to the USA and legalize drugs in their own country. How can you enforce law and order when a foreign country is funding criminals in your country with more money than exists in your own budget?


The USA has a drug problem, Mexico has a kartel problem.


That would be true on another continent.

But when your neighbour has an economy 100x the size of yours, and hands your cartels several billion dollars a year, you really have not realistic chance at all.


There is nothing wrong with adults doing drugs. The USA has a law and morality problem. We, the USA, choose to continue this model despite decades of evidence that it does not work and will not ever work.
