Pro Human Trafficking

Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery that involves exploiting people for forced labor or commercial sex acts. Victims are recruited through force, fraud or coercion and their freedom is restricted. Every country is affected as a source, transit or destination. Causes include poverty, lack of stability and opportunity, conflict, and family issues. Types of trafficking include bonded labor, forced labor in industries like domestic work, agriculture, factories, and sex trafficking of men, women and children. While some claim it provides cheap labor, human trafficking is considered a serious crime and human rights violation that often involves violence and spreads disease, psychologically damaging victims.

Human trafficking is a process and a form of modern-day slavery. It is a crime that involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to recruit, harbor, transport, provide or obtain a person for the purposes of sexual or labor exploitation. Every year, thousands of men, women and children fall into the hands of traffickers, in their
own countries and abroad. Every country in the world is affected by trafficking, whether as a country of origin, transit or destination for victims. Causes:

Abject poverty, especially among women. A lack of political, social and economic stability. A lack of reasonable and realistic prospects. Situations of armed conflict and oppression. Domestic violence and disintegration of the family structure. Lack of access to education and information. Types of Human trafficking:
Bonded labor, or debt bondage, is probably the least known form of labor trafficking today, and yet it is the most widely used method of enslaving people. Victims become bonded laborers when their labor is demanded as a means of repayment for a loan or service in which its terms and conditions have not been defined or in which the value of the victims services as reasonably assessed is not applied toward the liquidation of the debt. The value of their work is greater than the original sum of money "borrowed. Forced labor is a situation in which victims are forced to work against their own will, under the threat of violence or some other form of punishment, their freedom is restricted and a degree of ownership is exerted. Men are at risk of being trafficked for unskilled workers of forced labor can include domestic servitude; agricultural labor; sweatshop factory labor; janitorial, food service and other service industry labor. Sex trafficking victims are generally found in dire circumstances and easily targeted by traffickers. Child labour is a form of work that is likely to be hazardous to the physical, mental, spiritual, moral, or social development of children and can interfere with their education.

Pros of Human trafficking: 1. By providing cheap labor to the factories and service industries human trafficking reduces the cost of production, lowering prices for consumers. 2. Some human trafficking is voluntary For example: the people in country A sign up to be smuggled into country B, using an "indentured servitude" agreement like Europeans once used to get to colonial America. This form of voluntary human trafficking, though still exploitative and illegal, allows people to move from overpopulated countries to other countries that have more resources to sustain them, balancing the burden of human population across political boundaries. 3. Human trafficking allows some companies to produce goods and services at a lower cost while the other companies that compete LEGALLY will have to innovate and improve their goods and services.

The CONS of Human Trafficking 1. Human Trafficking is a crime against humanity. 2. For the purpose of exploitation, which includes exploiting the prostitution of others, sexual exploitation, forced labour, slavery or similar practices and the removal of organs. 3. Human Trafficking has a very high rate violence when compared to other professions even where prostitution is legal. 4. Human Trafficking promotes the spread of diseases, since almost all were sold as sex slaves, there are little chances that they use some protections. 5. Psychological Instability to the victims
