Indeed, the problem is quite large in the US, but that pales in comparison with the world-wide figures which range from a "low" of 12.5 MILLION to over 27 MILLION people held in bondage.

And workers "trafficked" are those held in bondage (invariably debt bondage, enforced by violence). That's not to be confused with those to pay to be "smuggled" into the country but then have no "obligation" to their smuggler.
