And why the outrage? He's a businessman catering to a market. You could even argue he's hurt less people than the suits at Wallstreet.
It might be true that he hurt less people than Wall street. I can't really say about that. However, I like to read the articles on Borderland Beat and the drug cartels are very violent and kill many people who aren't involved in drugs. The drug cartels also involved in trafficking women. It is very sad. I think marijuana legalization in the US would help lessen some of the cartel's power.
I would agree that there are a lot of people in the financial community that should be in jail. There are American banks that launder money for the cartel and I don't think that anyone has ever been sent to prison for that. That doesn't change the fact that Guzman should be in jail also.
