Addentum to the previous blog

The thing that really started to turn me away from limited government (at least on some levels) was the fact that slavery is still an ongoing problem worldwide, and it's a problem that's *growing*. In places where there is no government oversight, the likes of organized crime oftentimes fill the power void. And the weak and poor are the ones who bear the burden of the abuse.

The fact that there are probably 25 million sex slaves in the world currently is staggering. The system in which they exist is almost entirely below the radar, the underworld in which they survive lacking any 'governance' other than the tyranny of the sex traffickers.

May God bring light and freedom to the women and children who have been victims of sexual exploitation. Have mercy, Lord!
