I would offer the controversial opinion that narco-traffickers ARE businessmen...

Just very ruthless ones, willing to do anything to ensure they can maximize their profits.


I disagree. Criminals are criminals because they couldn't compete on a level playing field. They are immediate gratifications folks. They want things the way they want it immediately. It is their way or the highway.

They are not into planning, developing good managers, and making their organization more efficient.

But I agree in so much as they are not going away. They are still going to try to muscle in and get a piece of the action - but ultimately they will fail. If they succeed, their kids will get an Ivy League education and go legit. So, even if they succeed, they will disappear.
