The Deteriorating State of Mexico

Our neighbor to the south seems to slowly slipping into complete chaos. Mexico's security and law enforcement continue to deteriorate - particularly along the U.S. border where drug and gang related violence have caused massive spikes in the murder rate. Corruption also plagues the government...recently it seems prison officials used prisoners as executioners. The U.S. needs to start thinking long and hard about what a lawless Mexico means for our national security.
