The best way to end prostitution is to legalize it...and then have government regulate it to death.

Silly me. I saw the headlines and thought it was about Lobbyists and Congressmen.

A government that pimps out its own nation’s daughters is an evil government that must be violently destroyed.

“going to have to produce legislation”

The first thing they need to produce is a constitutional amendment adding the power to legislate prostitution. As the Constitution stands now prostitution, like marriage, is not the business of the Federal Government.

This article is about Canada. It helps to actually read an article before commenting.

Why do they need a Constitutional amendment? They haven't looked at that outdated piece of paper in ages. It's not relevant to today's society.

What government should do, if they really want to reduce prostitution, is to pass the Affordable Sex Act and have hookers and johns register on a $500 million web site. Rates will be set and subsidized by the federal government. Once the ASA kicks in, no one will be having sex.

(This article is really about Canada, I know.)

Prostitution has been around for how many thousands of years, on the record?

Problems persist, but now ‘our government’ or at least part of it, thinks it can end the problems with it?

Wow. I didn’t realize you could show up that low on the mental acuity chart and still have the ability to produce English sounds, let alone form short sentences.

Ah, but there will always be perverts who want just that. And proudly proclaim it.

Legalizing everything is not the answer.

Society and civilization cannot stand without some rules and laws. Libertopians have failed to use their brains.

Actually, it’s only a clever way to get Canadians to fund the whole thing.

Remember, there are poor unfortunates out there that can’t afford to get laid.

Think the Sexual Food Stamp, to quench their human needs according to some world body...

For other more fortunates, there’ll be a deal that will provide free services every fifth mining expedition, during which the public will get the shaft.

Libertopians... LOL, I like it.

I agree. Happiness in life is not centered around a free for all civilization.

Sandra Fluke has already established that it’s a violation of her civil rights if the taxpayer does not fund her recreational sexual activity. It’s easy to predict what would happen if prostitution was legalized in the USA. Democrats would assert that “access” to the services of “sex workers” is their civil right to be paid for by the taxpayer. It’s just not fair that fat ugly democrat creeps have to suffer this sexual discrimination! We have to level the playing field for them to make everybody equal.

It is NOT a Federal issue.

This is a contract between two consenting adults.

No government should be involved or even care.

And let us not forget the unattractive of both sexes. Those poor Uglo-Americans need it too, and are unlikely to get it without BUYING it!
