| Message | You are right it will not stop it, it will only reduce it. But we've made murder ,rape etc illegal. It didn't stop them from happening but it did reduce them. |

| Message | Making prostitution illegal is only the first(and easiest,I would say) step towards getting rid of it. Afterwards you have to fight with the cause of prostitution:poverty and lack of education. And that takes a loooong time. |

| Message | Wrong, the easiest way is to make it legal and heavily tax it so it isn't profitable, as it is currently. |

| Message | " the easiest way is to make it legal and heavily tax it so it isn't profitable"===> prostitution legal but not a recognized profesion. In other words if you tax it too much nobody will recognize that are prostituting themselves so they can avoid paying taxes, so we would be back to where we started. We are suprised that this is the reason you vote against. We would expect you to vote against so you can protect the rights of the women who want to prostitute because they like it. There are some you know! |
