Never heard of that. Will you cite a source?

"Santiago Nieto, head of Mexico’s financial intelligence unit (UIF), said his team had discovered that some of the country’s most notorious cartels had branched out into sex trafficking, especially ones whose core business faced disruption....
Mexico is an origin, transit and destination country for human trafficking, a global business estimated to be worth $150 billion a year....
Human trafficking may be the third-largest illicit activity in Mexico, after drugs and guns, he estimated."
That's from the link that Volsrock posted. Now, yes, it does say third-largest. Maybe guns are the second most profitable then.
However, if drugs were to be legalized or decriminalized, it can logically be assumed that guns and humans would be trafficked more, if they were comparably more profitable as a result.
yes. the ilegal trasde may be cheaper, but if the weed market is any indicator - it's not
Dispensaries do offer top quality weed and some quality controls. But you prolly pay a bit more then street prices.
"harm reduction" is the only sane way to even attempt to un-fuck up this FUBAR
Harm Reduction
https://drugpolicy.org/issues/harm-reduction
Harm reduction is a set of ideas and interventions that seek to reduce the harms associated with both drug use and ineffective, racialized drug policies.
Harm reduction stands in stark contrast to a punitive approach to problematic drug use—it is based on acknowledging the dignity and humanity of people who use drugs and bringing them into a community of care in order to minimize negative consequences and promote optimal health and social inclusion.
I'm not saying that legalization would still involve illegal sales. I'm saying legalization allows for cartels to sell a product they already have a supply chain for.
The main appeal to continuing to sell drugs in a legal market for a cartel would be for laundering money they make in other still illicit industries like guns and human trafficking.
That's complicated enough for its own thread, but here's a summary for the American context.
1) a militarized border with the resources capable of tracking and filtering all who cross the Mexican border. This is much more complex than a physical wall. You would need bases constructed along regular intervals of the border along with drone support for observation.
2) consistent enforcement of federal law against employers of illegals, so that the demand for illegal labor dries up. Many employers would face prison time.
3) Similar approaches to our marine borders to stop illegal transport (whether involving people, drugs, or other illicit materials) and also controls at the Canadian border.
