GHook -- what do you mean by "Curb the spread of AIDS via prostitution"?

I feel that indoor prostitution should be legalized, and street prostitution decriminalized.
Illegal prostitutes are subject to any health standards or testing. Many are drug addicts that take undue risks. If its legal, then men will not go the illegal route. The government can and will regulate it. Just like with liquor they will hold legal prostitution to high standards.

Such as, but not limited to:
(1) Monthly mandatory STD test.
(2) Age verification
(3) Zoning locations
(4) Health inspections
(5) Permit requirements
(6) OSHA and safety standards
(7) Background check requirement
(8) Requirement of drug testing
(9) Contraceptive requirements

On top of that employers will be selective. They, like most employers, will not want drug addicts.

All these will help prevent the spread of HIV and STDs, which are spread rapidly by prostitution.
