Will this trend lead to fewer and fewer people joining law enforcement, which would further weaken the government?
Regarding whether this constitutes a "failed state", I'd say it depends on how bad this gets.
Similar to the concept of "peaceful transfer of power", there also needs to be a relatively peaceful maintenance of power.
Politicians, judges and law enforcement are the very people who constitute a functional government. If, going forward, a certain threshold of the "good guys" start to opt out of joining their own governing system (in one of those capacities) for fear of having themselves and their families murdered, then the country becomes a failed state.
How can other countries prevent that from happening to them, especially Mexico's neighbors?
Thanks. I was just curious because I don't seem to have the mental focus at night for such endeavors, but that is the only time I have for such things.
Absolutely this. Not sure if it's 1-2 seconds but the delay is enough to make it unusable. I've missed turns and exits because of it. Google Maps seems to have some predictive ability that allows it to appear to be "real-time".
