$100,000 per year is legal and humane. $5 per hour is not in this country.

Why is that? How do you even come to this conclusion?

The law sets a minimum wage higher than that.

Read the context of that conversation. Do not take words out of context.

Women prostitutes in countries or states wherein it is considered illegal are less likely to report to the authorities when they get hurt. On the other hand, legalizing prostitution can give women more rights and encourage them to seek help if a violation has been done to them. You don't want these women to be controlled by "pimps", do you?
Again, heavily penalizing Johns and pimps is the best way.

I sometimes cant believe how cold people can be- if you are a john, hope you are arrested and they post your picture up someplace-- legal really doesn't protect any one - it is myth! get a real relationship and put a ring on it-
- I better shush-- because I will get shut down -- i invite you to go speak to some of the victims of this profession- very few are truly right emotionally or mentally -- very few-- there is no sense of self value.... how well you think they are?
The women I knew who did this only 'worked' 2-3 days per week, with 1-2 guys per day. I don't remember what she said she charged, but she was very financially comfortable.

It's definitely not 60 men per day. That sounds more like a human trafficking victim, rather than a voluntary sex worker.

They can choose to flip burgers or farm the crops.

However, if they do choose to do it, it would be legal.
Have anyone ever taken the time to talk to one or even hear about the life of a call girl and really ask them. Most were forced, broken abused, and abusing something. It's NOT a chosen profession!! There are countries where it is legal and plenty of the same not falling within the same confines of those laws, So it's worthless to think people are going to obey??! who wants to register your name as a frequent John. maybe better to order pizza n beer

Most? LOL. if you say they are mostly forced by their financial situation, I may believe you.

In every profession, there are some criminal activities and abuses. Shall we make every profession illegal?

No, most of legal prostitutes are not forced into prostitution. Since we made it illegal, abuse and enslavement have became an issue. Keep in mind, we have laws against abuse.

Why? Why should a "John" be penalized? Why does he or she victimize? It's a voluntary transaction between consenting adults!

If we legalize it, there wouldn't be "pimps."
