Zoning laws are much less restrictive.
You can make changes to your home or land as you like. You can get prescription medication like antibiotics (I'm taking to all the preppers :-) at any pharmacy without a prescription; excluding controlled substances. .
Most local law are less generally restrictive.

I feel at ease in Mexico. People are paranoid about cartels, but they are only concerned with those who interfere with their profits/operations, so they couldn't care less about what you do; assuming you don't mess with them. It's not a legit concern.

I'm inclined to blame the cartels on America's retarded drug war.

Agreed. They wouldn't be in the drug business is drugs weren't illegal for the bogus drug war.

The war on drugs was never actually combating the use of drugs. If you need evidence of of this fact, then here it is...

Top adviser to Richard Nixon admitted that ‘War on Drugs’ was policy tool to go after anti-war protesters and ‘black people’ .

No one decides not to do heroin, because they can't find it. They avoid it cause it's bad news, and life is going alright.
The drug war mostly hurts those who already have life problems.
It also hurts those whom the FBI and police set up, by planting drugs on them....

And Central and South Americans who get caught up in America's fraudulent "wars".
