May 3 (Reuters) - Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said on Saturday that U.S. President Donald Trump had proposed sending U.S. troops to Mexico to combat drug trafficking, but said she had rejected that offer because "sovereignty is not for sale."
Sheinbaum's comments were in response to questions about a Wall Street Journal report published on May 2 that said Trump was pressuring Mexico to allow deeper U.S. military involvement against drug cartels to combat trafficking across the shared border.

Exactly. Personally, I think that Dirk Chase Eldredge's book titled "Ending the War on Drugs" offers some very good ideas on that. Here's Amazon's blurb on said book:
**
A conservative Republican examines how and why America is losing the war against illegal drugs―and presents a case for carefully controlled legalization.

I agree. However too much money is at stake.

Yes. It's one of the reasons why I support the legalization.

As do I, and I say that not being into any drugs myself. I don't even take any prescription drugs. I think of it as akin to prohibition. Prohibition did wonders for the mafia, not so much for regular people.

Yep. Apparently we didn't learn the lesson from the Prohibition.
