    Conservatives and liberals are two sides of the same coin.. Liberals are all about pro choice..unless it's choosing to do something they disagree with. Conservatives are all about having the government out of our lives, expect for things they want to control. Fucking hypocrites.

    This is relevant in this thread why?

    It's always nice to get the government involved in and profiting from the sexual exploitation trade.

    How about leave consenting adults alone and let them life how they want...not how you want.
    It's not about what I want. I don't care what consenting adults do. I don't care if they fuck prostitutes. I don't care if people use hard drugs. It's a personal choice. However some things need to stay in the shadows, not brought out into the open and be legalized, legitimatized and normalized. Legalization of prostitution will cause more harm than good. Germany's got the data to prove it.
    Sounds like you care.
    I want the US to compete with Germany and become the sex trafficking hub of the world. I want the border to be completely open so that migrant sex workers from Latin America can be more easily exploited. On balance this will be better for society.

    Sounds like the people who wrote that are a hell of a lot more credible than you. Maybe you should give it a read. You might learn a thing or two.

    Sounds like you're getting things mixed up. I didn't write the Der Spiegel article. My credibility is irrelevant in this case. I'm just conveying points from their research.
