The Indian Sex Trade


Neat little story on CNN today about the sex trade in India. Officials have it pegged that at least 100 million people are involved with human traffiking. 100 MILLION people.

India's population is about 1.147 billion people. So that means that about 9% of the population, in modest estimates, is involved with human traffiking. That's increadible. That's at least 1 in 11 people in India in some way related to this industry.

About 1.2 million of those are kids.

Officials believe almost all the movement is within India (i.e. they don't leave the country).


I really have no comment on this.

I am completely speechless.
