results**

In Mexico right now, the government is putting a value on drug lord capture: $2 million. They have also posted a list of the the country's drug suspects, organized by trafficking gang. The question now is this: what kind of results will action like this yield??? I believe that such drastic action as this is the only way to produce any kind of result at all. In the fashion of fighting fire with fire, they must fight this money-fueled problem: with money. By offering two million dollars each for twenty-four men, it is going to make the people want these men's capture even more.
As a final thought: what would happen if a member of the drug cartels turns in their overlord? The only way to make this come about would be to promise government protection. But the only way to provide government protection....is to get the United States involved. If the United States began getting involved, and the option of a Witness Protection Program for those who turn in these drug lords, it would make Mexico have a higher chance of ending this problem.
