| Message | While we find prostitution abhorent, we must recognise that it is a choice between 2 consenting adults, an exchange of a "service" for money. We as a government must respect the individual's right to live as they please so long as they don't physically prevent the freedom of another person. |

| Message | Prostitution breeds corruption and helps those who are downtrodden stay downtrodden. Plus this can help the spread of STD. Could we maybe compromise on a government solution where the government makes money off of it? That way at least the government could require certain restrictions and keep people safe from diseases and corruption. Cause thats all I am worried about is keeping people safe from harm. |

| Message | The alternatives are: # Prostitution is legal but not recognized under government employment regulation policy. # Prostitution regulation decisions are left up to local governments. These are better than making it illegal. Making things illegal does not prevent those things happening. Look at the drugs wars going on throughout the world. Look at what happened during the prohibition. |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
