NAFTA is crippling the Mexican economy

What a lie, the drug cartels as heinous as they are should not be blamed for Mexico's collapsing economy as your report implies. NAFTA and any liberalization policies have opened up Mexico to US and Chinese products. Mexicans can't even grow corn because american(subsidized) corn is cheaper. For goodness sake, if people can't live off the land what are they supposed to do? All those traitorous politicians have sold my country to american interests. the cartels are just the symptom not the cause

NO Mr. DEA!

We don't just want the drug cartels gone from our sovereign territory, we want american intervention gone as well. Mexican politicians are an extension of american foreign policy, they don't serve the people. They're too busy liberalizing Mexican state assets and opening Mexican markets to US products. They are not seriously fighting cartels, it is just a pretext to make Mexico borrow dollars at a high interest rate so they can turn around and buy US military equipment. Perpetual debt cycle

I saw the movie called "No Country for Old Men" and that is exactly what is happening. The Mexicans want to kill off as many Americans as they can, so they will eventually take-over America!! America will just be One Big Mexico. By the way, where did all the money go to with this Globalisation meltdown? Who benefited?

Thank you for the program. While it introduced the theme, it would have been interesting to have had a harder nosed report. Could connections to the CIA's drug running have been made? One guy from the DEA mouthing 'the line' doesn't add up to real investigative journalism. What about substantiating connections to the top levels of the Presidency (Mexican)

Just wanted to say thanks for a fantastic piece of journalism , an insight into the continuing, and escalating, problem that Mexico faces with drug cartels. I am a huge fan of the country, and it's wonderful to be kept in touch so viscerally from such a distance. many thanks DIana Ridoutt

Most recreational drug users have no idea where their drugs come from or the people that have been hurt in the process. The same people who condemn the violence are supporting it. In this case I think many of the North American drug taking population have some blood on their hands...

alco state vs narco state

It doesn`t matter how many people around the world have to be killed as long as american`s are safe.
