Should prostitution be legal?

[Puddleglum]

I know for a fact that two of the Girls I see are going to college right now and one is going to become a Dental Surgeon . Its a way to make a large amount of money in a very short time.

Added to that its a gateway job. There are those who are funding tuition, there are those who are using it to find a guy to marry (there are tons of girls who marry their regular) there are those who will stay in the business past 35 as Managers and there are those who save their money to buy themselves another business (motels, rental apartment blocks, nightclubs and Bars are a traditional investment).

Now of course there is the street level prostitution. Girls don't chose that life they go into it because they are already desperate and normally its about drugs but if they weren't whoring they would be stealing so its a more honest way to make a living. Others are trying to make ends meet because some loser guy has left her with a couple of kids and doesn't pay any maintainence-better to let the kids starve huh?
