That is my point. You have to go after the actual problem, not just wack-a-mole. This is currently just a show of force and coms to the normies (who don't yet understand this) that The Sharif is back in town. Like I said, from the black hat CIA's point of view, Its a problem they want to have. Now they just have an excuse to raise the price, unfortunately. Now on the other hand, once we have the wall completely finished and properly manned AND get back complete control of the maritime and air aspects of smuggling it will be a different story....Even then, it would still be wack-a-mole.
You are underplaying this by a lot. If 150 tons is the current influx for a year, they just confiscated 14.5 tons in one bust. That's almost 9.6% of a years worth in cocaine alone.
Say your ballpark of 300 tons is accurate, it becomes ~4.8% in one bust. Yeah it sounds small, but with the current hand at the tiller , do you think it will stop there?
Yeah, I get what you are trying to say but talking about the deeper level is more interesting and I already know I'm right about how the cartel works. Again, it's awesome that they are finally at least showing people that they are back in business with serious busts. I'm stoked. Just call a spade a spade though. That's what I'm really saying. I'm more pissed that they have been playing this game against us for so long and I want to use this as an opportunity to help people understand. Send more drones and blow their home bases up. They are freaking terrorists now.
you haven't changed your rule set at all. the current game actually is whack-a-mole because the money is being attacked on multiple fronts. USAID and many other things have been closed. they are in a landscape of diminishing resources and are beginning to run out. every one of these thousand cuts counts.
