Mexico explicitly wants to export it's most dangerous kingpins to the USA for trial and jailing. This is a defacto admission that they have no ability to administer justice to the rich and powerful in their country.
They are every bit as much (or more) of a failed state as Iraq.
It's not clear that democracy is doing much to fix this, in Mexico, either.

Something is gonna change down there very soon. There's far, far too many gringo dollars going into real estate down Mexico's way.
I personally know two conservatives who purchased homes there this year. They both purchased their places 15 months BEFORE a single shovel full of dirt had been moved. Talk about hot real estate here in America, it is booming in Mexico too.
One of two things can happen, Mexico reforms or the chaos continues and the retired absentee ballot voters/donors ex-pat's start whining to their congresscritters and Mexico gets to meet the US Military up close and personal.
