Nothing can destroy a country quicker than the illegal so-called “recreational drugs.” That’s because drugs “eat” the young — the foundation of the nation’s present and its future. Drug cartels have brought Mexico, Colombia, and other promising states down to their knees.
Drug kingpins penetrate the state, and often sit at inner sanctum of power. In Mexico’s case, the police, security, and armed services have for long been in the pay of these evil men and women.
