Could this ever work?

Most experts on Mexico will speak contrary to Mexico being anywhere near a collapsed state, in addition to the PAN carrying on the same policies as the PRI.

From the point of view of someone who's lost a very close friend--former US case officer that was a major hostage recovery/cartel counter signint--to the nacros, this issue has on the become a frequent idea of mine.

The major long standing issue that still exists are the narcos/traffickers. I side with the school of thought that believes the DEA is primarily a huge money pit and could be used in a better capacity. However, as I see it, if the US were to privatize the protection of the ports and borders, as to to allow for business and legitimate travel to continue. Ideally, this could be achieved by either the federal govt. or the military. I picture presence patrols circa 2007 in Iraq cleaning up the streets via death blossom. Both the Mexican government and the Mexican people do not support the ongoing trends in the border towns and nacro-refuges, if the borders were effectively closed, this would allow for a more direct effort on rooting out the bad dudes.
