In the image the text actually specifically says "Global human trafficking." It seems that is you who can't get their facts straight, and appear to have been outsmarted by "Jali_Cat" on the twitters.
Right, but there's no mention of the US, let alone the southern border, in the UN report that references that figure. Yet somehow it manages to insinuate that Democrats are profiting from Global Human Traffic. Odd, disingenuous and irrelevant to this thread. I think you're the one that who got outsmarted by the twitters.
Why does there have to? International Human Traffickers have an interest in keeping the US borders open in effort to increase revenue flow there. As do International Drug Cartels. The quote is accurate, and relevant.
Drug Traffickers admittedly use the southern terrestial border of the united states very rarely. Instead they use nautical and aerial methods of smuggling. The border wall will be irrelevant to the stemming the flow of illegal drugs. i sincerely doubt a wall between Mexico and the USA will do much to stifle the global human trafficking problem. Education and economic development are the likely antidotes to terrible problems like those. Posting irrelevant numbers like "$32 billion!!!" or "50,000,000 people are involved in human trafficking!!!" is partisan hackery in the shape of hyperbole and contributes little in the way of solutions to the problem.
The democrats have already offered to partially fund the border wall/fence/barrier, so why not give that a chance and see if it can grow from there. In doing so, the government won't have to bite the people who they are ultimately there to serve.
