You cannot put drugs and money in jail, nor can you
make drugs or money name their friends. The problem
is with people. Authorities must hunt flesh. These
criminal organizations cannot be merely pruned so they
can simply grow back stronger. Tons of drugs and
currency sitting in the evidence storage areas of law
enforcement are nothing but a virtual wasteland. Drugs
are destroyed and currency seizures and other assets
are forfeited to fund law enforcement equipment and
related needs. The cartels lose their money and their
toys and police get new ones to resume the fight as the
cartels buy new ones. Hence, the vicious spin cycle
continues.
