The problems of human trafficking, child trafficking, and sexual abuse are not new. People could solve these problems if they cared enough and wanted to. When enough people come together with common goals in mind the problems they seek to solve are always solved eventually. The reason these problems have not been solved is largely the fact that there were people who did not want a fully effective solution in place. So they established economic, social, and legal policies that hamstrung the system of solutions to address these issues. Various policies were established to facilitate the legalized sale of African Americans in the distant past. Through Congressional and State Laws children are legally bought and sold using the foster system for anywhere between $30,000 and $50,000 on average. Not a single penny of that money goes to the children. The States and The Foster Agencies keep all of it. This is legalized child trafficking in America. Things do not change because it is profitable for government and private interests to keep the policies set as they are. Specific exploits have been established to ensure that these interests profit massively from the established policies. Look for instance at wage stagnation which became a particularly bad problem in the 1980s. The greed of private individuals and corporations grew exponentially from that time, but wages did not. They called this growing greed “inflation.” Inflation is the means by which they justify the increases in cost for housing, food, medical care, medicine, energy, and other essential goods and services. The people in charge and their lobbyists did not draft such policy in ignorance. Many of these people were sociopaths who saw these policies as advantageous to themselves and their business interests while screwing over the average American family. As time progressed things got worse and worse. It came to the point that first one parent had to work two jobs and then both just for families to eat and behave basic needs met. Whenever an acute crisis came on, the people would not have the capacity to overcome it and their quality of life would fall if they survived at all. The economic policies established have made poor families increasingly more vulnerable to exploitation and abuse by all interests that have sought to do so. The result is that when a poor family comes into hardship or has contact with the system, the system rarely seeks to help them. Rather the system seeks a way to profit from the disadvantage that family exists in. They take children and sell them into the foster system with little or no justification. The federal government pays the social welfare office $5,000 a removal. Then they get monthly payments for every child in foster care plus a huge one time bonus for each child adopted out after removal. Foster families get a monthly payment for keeping each child while the families the children come from are emotionally and financial devastated by the system rather than being assisted in their acute hardship. This is the system that is in place by design. It was never intended to help the children or their families. It has largely been established by governing officials under the guise of “helping children” by removing them from “abusive” homes. In reality, many of the social workers do not respect due process or Constitutional Law. They walk all over poor families and in some cases look for the children that are most suitable for sale through adoption agencies when they go to family homes, largely after false reports have been filed. The governing body and the interests that lobby it have worked hard to establish and continue these policies, without caring to account for the litany of underlying circumstances that lead people to be poor or have contact with the system to begin with. They judge the families without trying to look deeper at the underlying causes for their condition. They don’t bother to look at why, how, or a better solution.
