I agree about the problem with human trafficking. It is really bad in Texas due to our proximity to the southern border. Our local sheriffs office and police department denied the problem even existed in local communities. They refused training on how to recognize and prevent it. Some federal raids arrested about fifty traffickers in communities where the problem didn't exist.


Walmart used to stock the shelves at night and shoppers shopped in the daytime. Today, they were stocking shelves at the same time the pickers were filling orders. The entire store was a giant traffic jam. Dedicated warehouses for online order fulfillment are the only solution I can see working.
