ORIGINAL: Jaybeee A year or two back, one of your government departments reported that there were two states in danger of structural collapse - one of them being Mexico, due to widespread drug violence. If their police force, military and government dissolve, the current flow of drugs into your country will look like a trickle. How do you propose the collapse should be prevented, and if it happens (anyway), what would your own goverment do then? Personally I think we are getting away from the scope of the question and more into attacking people instead of context. If their "governing" forces/entities dissolved, then I believe that a drug war would break out and take over with a series of "warlords" similar in nature to Somilia. If that occured, I do believe that the following would have to occur: 1. The border would be closed to all but "assylum seekers" (that is mostly everyone that can't afford a gun and shitload of grenades and ammo) 2. The violence would spill over into our country, Canada and others. (that is why countries like Ethiopia sent in troops to Somalia) 3. That the US and Canadian militaries in a Unified Command (A command consisting of more than one nation's forces) and go down to quell the violence. (Re the Mexican War) 4. Once that occurs, I do believe that the citizens of Mexico will petition to become a part of the United States, using the existing states in Mexico as their individual borders. That would stop a lot of the illegal alien argument (tho not entirely because there are illegal aliensfrom other parts of the world), The Mexican standard of living would raise (we have all kinds of programs to assure this), and their infrastructure would improve tremendously (other programs) And to make a lot of people happy, NAFTA would pretty much disappear. My 2 cents
