YupI also think this paragraph is dead on!
"While we bear responsibility for our problems, the caricature of Mexico being propagated in the United States only increases the despair on both sides of the Rio Grande. It is also profoundly hypocritical. America is the worldÃÔ largest market for illegal narcotics. The United States is the source for the majority of the guns used in MexicoÃÔ drug cartel war, according to law enforcement officials on both sides of the border."
Has to be a market for the products (drugs, in this case) and the USA is the larget market in the world.
You know, I HATE drugs and think that they are at the root of many if not most of the problems in our society today - look at any inmate, and almost every time there is a drug connection.
All that said, what we are currently doing is not working, and its costing us a ton of money.
