Cartels are in real trouble

Well that's pretty much what I posted above. Good luck to anyone importing anything across the Mexican border
Bottlenecking U.S./ Mexico does seem like it could hurt the economy but I am not an economist.
Well...
That appears to be the death knell for my "You Can Take Our Lives But You'll NEVER Take Our FREEDOM" P-nut & Fred commemorative T-shirts...
I had opened a production line in Ciudad Juárez after getting shut down in China (workforce imprisoned) and Chicago (workforce disappeared before being imprisoned) and Indianapolis (workforce attempted to unionize and I had to shut down before all 5 of them sued me) and now with the 65% Cartel "fees" and the upcoming 25% tariffs I don't even believe I can make a profit with the nearly zero overhead... 😖
Things were getting dicy anyway..., with our Cartel liaison telling us we had to use packaging with false bottoms and his having hung my most recent purdue grad Manager/"Manufacturing Engineer" up by his toes over a pit of starving coyotes (he resigned the next day... Kids!!)...; things were starting to spiral out of control down there... When the DEA wanted to contract me as a C.I. (Confidential Informant) it was time to pull the plug on my dream (I'm not going anywhere south of That border, it's dangerous enough up here!)....

I may petition this administration for a south lawn statue of the intrepid dou but I'm afraid they've moved on... I would point out that the pair had nearly as much to do with "The Donald's" reelection as Tik-Tok and Joe Rogan but I don't have any hard data to work with... 😕

We'll see how it plays out. The idea that goods cannot be separated from a terrorist organization from a normal commercial enterprise seems insane to me, but I'm not an expert on Mexico. If Mexico wants to keep the millions of jobs that support the U.S. economy, it has quite an incentive to get its affairs in order.
