- Summary
- Fueled by failing border policies and lawlessness in Mexico and Central America, drugs are pouring over the nation's southern border in record quantities, turning Americans into addicts, migrants into drug mules-- and killing us in record numbers. Buffett, a landowner on the U.S. border with Mexico, has seen first-hand the devastating impact of cheap Mexican heroin. The solution isn't a wall. Buffett shows how poverty and cartel violence spur migration, and outlines a realistic, effective, and bipartisan approach to fighting cartels, strengthening our national security, and tackling the roots of the chaos south of the border. -- adapted from jacket
