The Basis of Power in the Drug Trade, Right?

Rand: Different favillas, the rulers, end up a kind of having different basis of power. Inin like zona west, for example, auyou get something more like protection rackets. Those places tend to be more violent because there is not really a high cost to having violence in those areas.
