Lauryn Galindo, 53, and her sister in Seattle, Lynn Devin, received fees of $10,000 or more to arrange adoptions

That's cheap compared to the prices agencies charge for US children. They know they have prospective parents over a barrel and can bilk them out of their last dime. Worse than used car salesmen and lawyers.

Not to mention the things they say and do to pregnant women, the fathers of these babies, the biological grandparents of these babies. White babies are worth a bundle if you can get your hands on them. There is enormous pressure applied to families to give their babies up. If you are pregnant, you are a target.

You talk about the the demand side of the equation in your excerpt, but no one ever talks about the supply side. Do you have a young daughter? Better guard her well. Baby brokers regard her as a producer of an extremely valuable commodity - your grandchild.
