Pfft. You guys actually pay for third world labor? How quaint. Me, I just help folks get a work visa, cover their travel costs, and throw a few bucks to their families. Then I "ask" them to work for me for free. Since it seems they're under some strange misunderstanding that not working for me involves worse exploitation or other punishment, they tend to stick around. What a deal! All the while, the promise of their debt being "repayed" and them being allowed to leave freely is held out like a carrot in front of a mule. But, really, my initial costs are recouped in less than a week. After that, I can sell their "labor" to others, usually netting me $25k/year per person.

Since my employees are generally doing illegal things and separated by a few degrees from me, I can always threaten to call the cops on my own operations and let them all take the fall and be jailed or deported. The real trick, however, is to "hire" people in pairs. Then, when they get to my country, the pair is separated. If one of them acts up or attempts to leave, they are kept in line with knowledge that their family member might not have the funnest time after they're gone. Finally, I have everyone write happy letters to their families back home about how great things are. This often includes a little cash to act as seed money. Then, their families are inclined to assist their other friends and family members to come join and work for me. It's kind of like an Amway pyramid scheme in that way.

Geeze guys, you really suck at exploitation.
