Here is a possible hypothesis, or what the historians would call a thesis: Since the Democratic Party, in its 2016-2019 state, tends to be dominant in states of the East Coast and in the states of the West Coast, plus a few states closer to the Heartland, like Illinois, the Socialist, Marxist, Communist or Leftist political ideology would be strongest among Social Workers in those East and West Coast Blue States. An allied hypothesis would postulate that the Leftist ideology among Social Workers is stronger in large urban areas, no matter if the state is Blue or Red.
Now, bring in the data on Child Protective Services being used in Child Sex Trafficking and see where this is greater, in large urban centers and in states of the East and West Coast?

But this problem is not limited to states of the West and East Coast.

"Texas Child “Protection” Services: Pipeline to Child Sex Trafficking"

"The Texas Tribune also reports:
Low-paid, overworked child welfare workers quit their jobs at alarming rates; one-third of investigative caseworkers leave each year.
This is a typical excuse given by the mainstream media as to why children in the system are being abused – not enough funding for social workers.
However, CPS whistleblowers tell us a different story. They talk about broad corruption within the agencies, and how good social workers never last, as they learn quickly it is not about helping the children, but protecting the agency and bringing in federal funding to support the system."
"It is a system where, as U.S. District Judge Janis Jack wrote in a 2015 legal opinion,
“rape, abuse, psychotropic medication and instability are the norm” and children often leave more damaged than when they arrive.
It is also a system from which many children enter the world of selling sex. Eighty-six percent of runaway children in the United States suspected of being forced into sex work came from the child welfare system, according to a 2016 analysis of cases reported to the National Center on Missing and Exploited Children. Of the 79,000 child sex trafficking victims estimated to be in the state, the vast majority were in foster care or had previous contact with Child Protective Services, according to a recent University of Texas study.
“It’s very easy for a trafficker to prey on those specific kids,” said Dixie Hairston, who leads anti-sex-trafficking efforts in North Texas for the nonprofit advocacy group Children At Risk. “Something is going wrong. These kids are not being kept safe.”
