Agreed. The EU has pretty rigorous stipulations for joining, just look at Ukraine. I do think they’d address their corruption problems if it meant they could join a federation with the US and Canada. We just don’t have a political mechanism right now to pressure them to clean up their act.
I have zero qualms about the US intervening to put the cartels in their place but people would get furious at that. Sadly, a US intervention is the only realistic option for getting rid of cartels initially.

Agreed, Mexico needs to open the door. But the US hasn’t exactly been the sort of neighbor you want to invite in in recent years.
