It's not a narco state if it's legal
Otherwise any country producing and selling cigs is a narco state
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narco-state
Narco-state (also narco-capitalism or narco-economy[a]) is a political and economic term applied to countries where all legitimate institutions become penetrated by the power and wealth of the illegal drug trade.[2] The term was first used to describe Bolivia following the 1980 coup of Luis García Meza which was seen to be primarily financed with the help of narcotics traffickers.[3]
Edit
Want to keep narcos on a leash?
The chinese way, systematic death penalty for any1 getting caught touching illegal drugs
They'll go elsewhere to find softer skies for their business, don't worry, they aren't stupid, they'll figure out soon enough they can't win against the totalitarian way
Now there's always that "muh democracy!" getting in the way
ll your call citizens
It's about the world you want to live in
A world where narcos get shot on the spot, or a world where narcos shoot you on the spot
