Tax Prostitution
This I can agree with. There's an slide show on CNBC right now about the Mustang Ranch. (Link Below)

One of the girls says she makes usually $1000 a night. I would imagine they're taxed in NV.

Prostitution should be legal
Sure it should be legal. It should be taxed and those women should be given 401k's, profit sharing, and health benefits.
A friend of mine did some prostitution for awhile
It was before I knew her. She was very young and homeless and trying to survive. While her case isn't what we're talking about here, as she would have been underage anyway, I still can't imagine putting someone in jail and calling them a criminal because they're trying to survive the only way they know how. And of course, once you have that criminal record, it makes it even more difficult to change your life circumstances. It breaks my heart to think of her as young girl and everything she went through. Today you'd never know she lived that kind of life unless you really knew her and could see the emotional scares she carries (most of which aren't from the prostitution but from the abuse and incest she survived). She's an amazing person, with a huge heart, who spends most of her time fighting against poverty for those who can't speak for themselves.

While I don't know the mind of a prostitute, I'd imagine that most fall into the profession because they have few options available to them. Some don't have options, family support, education.

I think by leglizing and regulating it, you'd have less disease and less drug abuse.
Prostitution, Pot, Booze and Recreational Drugs

I am not talking about drugs that harm if used in moderation. I think our society has given the idea of "escaping reality" for a little while, a real stigma. I don't understand why we, as a society, frown upon pleasure. I think it is perfectly acceptable to "feel good"....what do you think?


And What about prostitution? Should it be legal everywhere? It is a "victimless crime".


Prostitution, alcohol, pot, recreational drugs, cigarettes...sm...
ALL should be illegal.

Some are not out of 'tax reasons'.

How come that people can only relax when they are under the influence of whatever?????
