Something different now than it was then is value of the contraband. Every high school kid in America has ready access to Mexican drugs, IIRC we collectively consume about 400 tons of just cocaine alone each year, as more than an estimated 30 billion US dollars per annum flows south across the Border. That sort of money could probably buy a lot of people.

It would probably be amazing to see the drug cartel's payroll sheet.
I guarantee there are a lot of US politicians and high ranking LEO's getting nice checks from them every month for their cooperation on "Border Security."
