Others will just step in to replace those arrested. There is just too much money to be made.

The captured seem to be military guys incolved in drug trafficking. This happens from time to time to dismantle several drug trafficking structures. That's how the organized crime people were in such as Figueroa Agosto were dismantled by the state and drug trafficking decreased substantially.

Of course and exactly why this will never end since the money corrupts those in charge.

It will decrease for a while , but there is far too much money to be made and someone else will step in. Rinse and repeat operations like this will never succeed.

I cannot comment on that because I will be banned from DR1. All I can say is that what has been done and what is being done will NEVER work.

The only shot this government has at fixing their organized crime problem is to first fix their education system.
Short of this, like it or not, the problem will continue and they will not be able to arrest their way out of it.

Fair enough. The TOS would prevent a statement from us that would be allowable.Been there done that.

I have no idea if it is a TOS issue or just the attitudes of the owner/mods here. I think the latter.

They also arrested two police agents who were trying to take some of the confiscated money:

The only shot this government has at fixing their organized crime problem is to first fix their education system.
Short of this, like it or not, the problem will continue and they will not be able to arrest their way out of it.

But the whole plan is to leave it exactly the way it is. Occasional posturing now and again, 4%, everyone gets a device, we’re buying new desks, and such.

Déjalos comer bizcocho.

Fixing the education system is not going to remove the real problem in the OP.
