The Corporate Cartel: What Walmart Can Teach Us About Drug Lords

Standing at the border of Ciudad Juarez, you'd witness something unexpected: not just violence and chaos, but a meticulously organized business operation worth $300 billion annually. Drug cartels don't just peddle narcotics-they run supply chains that would impress logistics managers at Fortune 500 companies. They worry about quality control, customer satisfaction, and market share. They franchise like McDonald's, offshore like Nike, and innovate like Silicon Valley startups. This isn't romanticizing criminals; it's recognizing an uncomfortable truth that intelligence agencies and business schools have already acknowledged. The drug trade operates according to the same economic principles as any global industry, and until we understand this, every enforcement strategy will fail. What if the real solution isn't more guns and prisons, but simply better economics?
