1. Great. And quite right about the development of the cartels, . . . |
|
and much of their remaining profitability.
However, legalizing drugs will not abolish the cartels -- as with crime syndicates after the end of Prohibition, an illegal cartel (like their legal brothers, the corporations) will not just fold up the tends if their product becomes legal. Instead, they will actively find new ways to make illegal profits -- as they already do, for example with kidnapping and human trafficking.
Still, legalizing drugs would make a big dent in the profits that make them run.
