Yes, you read that headline correctly. No, this is not “fake news.” Horrible, wicked people are selling their own offspring for electronics. This week, LifeNews.com called attention to a report that Chinese authorities are investigating a couple believed to have sold their 2-month-old son on an illegal online auction. According to the Daily Mail, the child was allegedly sold for 19,000 yuan, or about $2,800. The father of the child has since been arrested and is under investigation. Police say he used the money to buy food, clothes, and cell phones for himself and his girlfriend. More from the Daily Mail:
According to Jiangxi Broadcasting Station, the incident occurred in Ganzhou, China’s Jiangxi Province, in late May. The Ganzhou police were informed by people who saw the advertisement posted by the couple on WeChat, the Chinese equivalent to Whatsapp. The police immediately dispatched officers to track down the couple. After they found the father, he admitted that he had already sold the baby to a family living in a small village in Shashi Town, Ganzhou. READ MORE
It is sad to say, but this is probably not the first occurrence. These ‘illegal online auction(s)’ have probably been used to sell children and slaves since the internet first became popular. This is horrid because it turns humans into nothing more than objects…in the future our lives and job prospects could be based on our ‘worth’ as an individual. “History always repeats itself,” is a common enough colloquialism but at what point will we take steps to prevent these things from becoming a reality–will it happen now, or after we have created a future nation of indentured servants who sell themselves for money to support their families or their radical technology ‘needs’?
Our “Leaders” have been perhaps THE Most guilty of all Slave Trading — from Africa trades in slave days, to hiring illegal citizens for nannies and house maids, to the NOW Recognized Sex Slave & Pedophilia Ring. But everyone blows it off. ADOPTION IS SO EXPENSIVE, it’s ridiculous. If you have MONEY ? You can buy an INFANT, THRU LAWYERS, but THEY get ALL the MONEY! WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE!?? The birth parents obviously can’t afford the costs of a child, THINK about the life he would’ve had with them! If State gets involved – MONEY WILL CHANGE HANDS! CHILDREN ARE BIG MONEY IN GOV AGENCIES! I ASK AGAIN: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE!? There SHOULD BE A SAFE, PUBLIC WAY TO DO IT WITHOUT GOV INTEFERENCE; THAT’S MY TAKE.
