I believe a Christian revival among the youth of Mexico would dry up the cartel’s recruitment real quick. Only God can do that though. I’m going to begin to pray for it to happen.

Having been in Mexico to see family recently, it struck me that corruption has only gotten worse. I think that if the elite continues to let the rot undermine institutions, it is unlikely that drug war violence can be stopped. How can Mexicans generate employment on a mass scale when the system is so rigged, from schools to the highest levels of government? How can society provide a meaningful economic alternative to the glory of joining cartels?
