I’m no Mexico expert but I can’t imagine Mexico is wealthy enough to afford this type of protection in the numbers they need. They also couldn’t likely rely on local hires without extensive background checking. Bear in mind that they would need people who are experienced and ready to shoot at all times. The best scenario would be to hire PMCs to provide security but they don’t come cheap and have their own logistical issues.
Why not just legalize drugs? Then you can just tax em. Fairly of course cause it still has to be profitable. The illegality of the drugs is why there’s so much crime down there. Take the money you’re putting into drug enforcement and put it into education on why the drugs shouldn’t be done in the first place. Give people the tools to make educated choices about what they put into their bodies you know? I guess I just don’t get it.
That’s part of a solution. Unfortunately the cartels have diversified from just drug trafficking. Extortion and kidnapping are now other big sources of revenue. Surprisingly even the avocado trade.
