Trafficking: Snatched from Behind Human trafficking brings in a staggering 32 billion dollars each year, making it the second largest criminal industry worldwide (“End Trafficking” 1). Imagine the things that this money could be used for, such as paying off national debt, donating to organizations, or circulating back into the economy. However, this problem was not always so big; It is tremendously increasing around the globe at an insane rate (Poulin 3).
