By this logic, there should be nobody brought to a country to do a job legal in that country. Are you happy making that equivalent claim, or changing your view given a counter example?

Isn't that the case? Presumably humans that are trafficked for forced labor are paid below minimum wage and exposed to bad working conditions that are illegal.

I'm not sure what you're arguing here. You said that there wouldn't be anyone trafficked for prostitution if it was legal, but humans are trafficked to work in fields like construction.
