This special report by CNN brings the problem close to home. There are an estimated 300,000+ slaves in the United States today. Government agencies estimate over 14,000 individuals are trafficked into the United Sates each year.

A man on the CNN forum argued that 300,000 was such a small percentage of the United States population and we were doing pretty good. Maybe, but that's still 300,000 people and most of them are minors. That's equivalent to...

• The total stadium attendance for 10 MLB baseball games.
• The number of people attending Disneyland over 9 days.
• The population of New Orleans, LA.
• The total number of children attending 500 elementary schools in the USA.
