US drug enforcement is a subset of the US military industrial complex. On one hand they need to fight wars to continue to make their contract profit; on the other hand they need to make Americans believe that the "war" can be won.
There is simply too much money in drugs for the 1% of the US or Mexico to ever really change this status quo.
From time to time they will throw us a bone like the "Queen of the Pacific". Calderon will even sacrifice some 60 thousand of his own citizens to spin the truth. But beyond all of the media hype and government chicanery is the truth: selling illicit drugs and enforcing illicit drug laws are phenomenal money makers for those concerned.
Their profits influence both governments and will continue to do so until we the people stop them.
