US Drug Trafficking Problem = Solved
This is absolutely ludicrous, yes. This would probably cost a hell of a lot more than it’s worth. But for those of you who have actually sat and had coffee with me, you know I love ludicrous and completely expensive, and completely fascist solutions to all sorts of issues.
This one hit me after watching a few videos & reading up on the Mexican drug cartels in the Northern border regions of Mexico, aka, our US of Amerikuh Southern borders.
I say, fuck this noise, time to end this shit. Here’s how it’s done.
1. The Mexican Government isn’t in control of their own dirt. The Cartels are.
2. The US military has some pretty bad ass ways of waging urban war on “less than better off” countries – overseas, at that…
3. With ease, the US invades the Northern Mexican states.
4. After, let’s say, 2 years (1/10th the amount of time spent blowing shit up in Iraq) the US wins
5. Time to redraw the borders, and leave … 250,000 troops on … 10 to 15 bases on our new property.
6. Texas… so you’ll approve, you can become even a little bit bigger
7. Two or three new states will have to be formed, but the lower half of Baja will have to be emptied – that’s going to be a Federal zone of quarantine… Hell, let the Air Force have it to “test aircraft”.
Sorry, California… You’ll run out of weed in no time. The cartels, well they’re all fighting in one spot. If they think they can go up against the US military – have them start trafficking oil and see how long that lasts. I’m pretty sure if the motivators were set in motion (i.e. we truly cared about “democracy” and “freedom”, not just margins on barrels), we’d be all over this solution.
It took me about 5 minutes drawing a few borderlines on a Google Map and about 20 minutes to think of & type this post up. Seems like a few hundred DEA agents and Mexican Officials could do a shit load better than I did with a plan, but hey! This is a great start.
As an added bonus, the reason you flop the borders to be convex? Well, look at Mobile, Alabama’s drug trafficking numbers, you’d think they’d be prime for the pickin’s for drugs, but they’re not. I’m going to say that’s because they’re surrounded by US borders, deep behind our “international water line”, and that makes it a heck of a lot harder to get to, as we Amerikuns have guns and we do like to use’m on invaders.
