      Yeah, because if you can’t afford to live, then you certainly can’t afford to move to another country.

        Not sure if this is a jest, but it isn’t true.

        People move to other countries sometimes with little more than the clothes on their backs - just look at historical immigration to the US.

        If you have the luxury of doing it the proper way - getting a job offer, a place to live, etc - then that’s perfect, but desperate people will do desperate things to survive.

          I may be misunderstanding your argument but just to make sure I want to point out that

          desperate people will do desperate things to survive

          does not run counter to

          if you can’t afford to live, then you certainly can’t afford to move to another country

          The vast majority of the people who live to tell that story had family support from back home an connections before they loved, just like the ‘self made millionaires’ who started their company in their parents three car garage with hundreds of thousands of dollars invested by family members.

          Otherwise it is mostly poor people who are getting trafficked if they o ly have the shirts on their backs because the smugglers stole the meager amount they had saved up.
