Comments by "Seven Proxies" (@sevenproxies4255) on "Analyzing Evil: Gustavo \"Gus\" Fring From Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul" video.
What I find the most intriguing about Gus Fring, is that he probably is a "net force" for good in some respects. He's involved with meth production and sale, and maybe he use a lot of the revenue from his various businesses (legal and illegal alike) to give ti charity and youth programs, i'm not entirely sure he does it as a "front". Gus doesn't really divulge his inner thoughts a lot in Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul, but I think that in his mind, he's trying to harness the potential for wealth through crime towards the use of helping the community. He created Los Pollos Hermanos, not solely as a front for his drug trade, but also to create a job opportunity for people with quite low qualifications. And whenever he's being his most ruthless self, it is usually towards other criminals, since he views them as harmful scum of society. His methods and actions really seem to embody the addage "Can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs". He's willing to sacrifice the lives and wellbeing of drug addicts and cartel members alike in order to acquire more money to fund his community building efforts. This also shows in his relatively modest personal lifestyle. He doesn't live in a luxurious mansion. He doesn't squander money on too many luxury items. His greatest projects are geared towards community building and offering an opportunity to people who are willing to work hard and aren't "lost causes".

I saw an interview with the british ex-cocaine trafficker "Posh" Pete. He definitely attested to that the life of a drug trafficker is one of constant fear and paranoia and that you'll end up seeing a lot of fellow colleagues in the business get murdered in the most brutal ways imaginable. In the end he deemed that the money isn't worth it.
