Cocaine: why the cartels are winning | The Economist
America spends $40bn a year on the war on drugs. But its “zero tolerance” approach has done little to curb addiction or overdose rates, which are the highest in …
There is no way to control a substance by making it illegal, black markets exist since the dawn of time you idiots, it’s economy basics. In the long term you only loose control completely. The right thing is to put (back) this commerce under the control of law just like it was in the 1800s or most of the 1900s (till the ‘60s), legalize means this.
confining any product or service to the illegal market always results in astronomical profits . And since there are no business laws between cartels and gangs violence to gain market share and social ills will be manifest . Legalization is the only way out of this mess . But those who benefit – cartels , banks , militaries , prison industry , won't allow legalization .
Cartels are winning since governments have their part on it. Pablo Eskobar lost because at his time the US wasn't getting any of the money made with the drug. My uncles explained to me that in the country side after the Eskobar era we could see FDA all over the places…they just took over; Nowadays, cartels are a just here to maintain fear, chaos , to distract people of even rebelling, taking over but more importantly to keep any suspicions on govs, especially US'one.
That war was a loss since inception. Just legalize all of it. A persons body is their own property. If they commit a major offence while on drugs, well then that's another story.
The cartels are winning because cocaine is best drug, hands down. Thinking you can stop it is as dumb as thinking you can stop the wind or stopping the earth from spinning.
United states is HEAVILY involved in the drug trade. Their "war on drugs" Is propaganda BS they feed to their dumb populace to seem legitimate. Drugs are beneficial to the united states in many ways like keeping minority neighborhoods in chaos, fueling the prison industrial complex, dumbing down people, and most of all because of its vastly lucrative profits. The drug wars in mexico also keep America's brown neighbor destabilized which is in their interest, just as they keep the brown middle east destabilized. America has its dirty hands into anything worth money. This country was built on genocide, slavery, stealing resources, wiping out cultures.
The u.s uses mexicans and south americans as the scapegoats for the dirty drug business, but when you look at the top of the drug pyramid, you will see some dirty old, white, internationalists.
As long as there is demand from dumb, brainwashed people, the smart and ruthless will take advantage
There is no way a war of this kind can be won. As long as there are addicted people, there will be supply. The world is too big there will be always a person or organization that will take the command.
