What is Cartel Corner all about?
The drug dealing – narcotics trafficking industry has entered a risky phase. It would be so easy to be complacent, profits are up and politicians in the main continue to support the industry through keeping the drugs illegal.
However there are some extremely dangerous noises coming from a number of politicians, especially in the US. As a major European based distributor of street drugs, I have watched in horror as increasingly liberal laws have weakened the market.
I know the industry is ‘fiercely’ competitive, I am not adverse to risk, I am not preaching for some bullshit deal for a cartel of cartels but I am really worried there won’t be a business at all if we don’t start taking this shit seriously there won’t be a game for us to play.
