The Mexican government being corrupt and in bed with the cartels is the least shocking thing I've read today.

There's no way you have the freedom and power of these cartels without heavy government and possibly military support.

There's no way some people from the govt are not involved in cartel business given how cartels target family members of govt officials who don't comply to their terms... it's like you're forced or get killed.
