I do not believe that prostitution should ever be legalized! I do believe that there should be more safe houses and counseling centers for prostitutes. Very seriously do I doubt that most of the women in the sex industry hoped that they would grow up and be "prostitutes." I think people try to make themselves believe that these women LOVE their line of work....I encourage you to read a few biographies from former "call girls" if you are one of those people who believes this.
In my opinion, the government needs to work even harder than it already does to end human trafficking. An estimated 14,500 to 17,500 people, primarily women and children, are trafficked to the U.S. annually. These young women and girls are forced to work in the sex industry in the U.S. by organized criminals. If this many people are already being forced into the sex slave industry, imagine how many more would be if prostitution were legalized.
