La imagen de la mafia estadounidense evitando las drogas es pura Hollywood. Lucky Luciano y Arnold Rothstein construyeron la red narco de Estados Unidos.
Very interesting—especially when you start connecting the dots: Lucky Luciano, Al Capone, Meyer Lansky, Costello, Genovese, Anastasia, and others.
It’s fascinating to realize that even back then, the U.S. government was already making deals with drug traffickers—something that continues to this day.
What’s also intriguing is how this cycle keeps repeating itself. From that era (let’s add the great Frank Sinatra to the list) to the present day (with whichever celebrities you want), it’s the same story playing out with new actors and new drugs. It’s like a dynamic mirror—perhaps even more violent now?—but with the added layer of today’s incredible technology: weaponized drones, robot dogs, and modified AK-47s.

Thanks much there Eduardo. This is a fascinating take and very succintly put. 100 percent agree. Great to have your voice here.
I though the Russians, seized control of the drug trade, from the Columbians.
In certain places I think. The Russians are the real masters at capturing the European on-line market right now.
Its hard to contemplate the levels of extreme violence cartels can resort to.
I'd assume online sales of M.J. in the USA is majorly western USA 'farmer' types ?
I’ll have to look more into that one. Sounds interesting.
