Conflating human trafficking with prostitution justs makes me doubt that human trafficking is actually going on.

"Human trafficking" is the new word for prostitution. They are used one in the same. If you go out and hire a hooker off the street corner for a BJ, you are engaging in human trafficking.

In the military, George W. Bush saw to it that human trafficking be added to the UCMJ so if a sailor in port goes out and gets himself a hooker for an hour, he can go to Leavenworth.

So when we read stories about human trafficking regarding sex workers, we are reading about the world's oldest profession, what used to be called plain old prostitution.

And when people rush to the defense of prostitution as a victimless crime, it is reasonable to suspect that such people have a problem justifying their own self-destructive and harmful-to-others behavior.

Human trafficking does not mean merely voluntary prostitution.

People bringing in illegals in groups or otherwise, are called human traffickers.
