They should legalize it so they can tax and regulate it. And have some chance of ensuring that only consenting adults are involved. Prevent the spread of stds.

Makes more sense than legalizing drugs.

Prostitution's already legal through spousal and child support.

I think you mean through marriage. There is nothing about child support that resembles prostitution.

Not sure why anyone thinks they can tell people what they can and can't do with their body....... if a woman or man wants to get money for sex...... no one elses business.

It sickens me that I'll soon have to explain to my children that their futures will be paying others to sleep all day and eat for free.
Legalize Prostitution in America

If ignorance is bliss, you must be one happy camper.

This is not freedom of choice

Get these women help if they want it, but don't legalize it
In countries where prostitution is legal it IS a choice and not just for drug addicted or mentally ill women.

It is a trade like any other.

Many men (and women) don't want the hassle that comes with a relationship. All they want is a quickie without the wining, dining, flowers and romancing.

EXACTLY. How many women stay in a marriage only because of the lifestyle? That is a form of prostitution as well.
