Quote by: Nono Kristof: Do as Spitzer said - International Herald Tribune I've argued it both ways, on this board and elsewhere. I'd be interested in some sober, balanced views. No rant, please, and libertarians kindly read carefully what Kristof says before posting.

As Kristof argues, its OK to legalise the women (or men) but its those who are "Running" them who laugh the loudest. The pips and gangs who live off these workers are the ones who have soiled and spoiled the worlds so called oldest profession.

The arguments on whether to be legalised or not, hinge in two camps in my opinion

Those who find it moraly reprhensible

Those who agree with the principal of free trade and the rights of a human being to make a living from their skills

Sadly with the latter there are too many others who will also make money
The legalislation would need thorough drafting, freedoms of individuals to be fully accountable. Strict regulation on those who ran agencies and work places.
(It could enable a special class of auditor who checked all apsects prior to licencing. Possibly courses to be run in special skills)

Of course it won't happen, because society is too scared to allow even more legislation.

Plus isn't part of the joy of paying, the ilegality of it so the guilt is in someway mitigated?
