#2 Obviously wrong. They don't even discuss the American South. Just ask Sharpton or J Jackson.

#3 These include debt bondage, forced labour, prostitution, forced marriage, etc.

And herein lies part of the problem. As with so many things, the do-gooders/lefties OVER sell the size and nature of the problem (see also, rape on campus, racism) to the point where it becomes no big deal.

But if you don't over-blow the problem you might actually solve it and then what would you do (see Jackson, Sharpton, et al)?

I'm not downplaying the problems listed above but they are not all the same and mostly don't fit the traditional definition of slavery.

#6 There is something wrong with this index. Cuba (0.0362)) is ranked just below the U.S. (0.019)) on the index.
