They said unethical
I've spent a career in places with very little rule of law or effective governance.
The only thing that can give you a sliver of hope is to physically be close to a community that is right-knit and competent homesteaders. This is African village rules. Force and money are all that matters. Life is cheap. Food is scarce and untrustworthy unless you farm it yourself. Cities are nightmares of abuse with pockets for the super-wealthy behind walls.
Real life examples like Lagos are hard to explain to Americans. Parable of the Sower gets close and is a book worth a read.
Rhymes with squeegee.
I was going to say armed insurrection, but on second thought that might be ethical under those circumstances.
Unethically probably the most gain could be in manufacturing fake medicine. Cheap inputs, expensive prices.
Ah, in fact, even better for repeat customers: Making real medicine and selling the hard stuff over the counter (assuming drug schedules are "regulation").
Sell meth to Musk's gang? Get them hooked.
Create a buisness in the US to facilitate any illegal activity you want, but physically leave the country for your safety
