The money will be in the form of three-year loans, but the terms permit the Obama Administration to demand earlier repayment - presumably triggering bankruptcy - if it believes the restructuring goals are not being met.

This year Washington approved $400 million for Mexico's antidrug fight in 2009, part of a three-year aid package known as the Merida Initiative. But critics say the plan focuses too much on interdiction hardware like helicopters and not enough on software like an overhaul of Mexico's police and judiciary - especially higher pay for cops, many of whom earn a measly $5,000 a year...
