Calls for military action against Mexican cartels have grown in the past couple of months as the opioid epidemic continues with no sign of slowing down, however, is such an action even feasible?
American outsourcing to Mexico is based on the lower cost of labor. The longer & more violent the drug wars, the lower the Mexican cost of labor. These drug & cartel wars serve the financial interests of both America (cheaper stuff) and Mexico (more jobs). The political & corporate establishments on both sides of the border have no interest in ending them.
