The sad thing is they are quite obviously a narco state but nobody wants to call it. Same with Venezuela. Just waiting for Forbes magazine to do an article on Narco billionaires for the DEA to swoop in... Thats the Narcos (Netflix) meme right... If Forbes exposes you they shut you down.
Funny isn't it? Mexico is a narco state because of American and European drug habits. Instead of tackling drug use the DEA is fighting cartels in Middle and South America. Cartels that are equipped with America made guns.
The cartel would not be happy. The US didnt allow Mexico itself to legalize in the 60s[0] which actually crippled the cartels market and brought and end to overdozes iirc cause people got cleaner drugs and help from government facilities.
