So what do you really think of prostitution? should it be legal? If no, why should it be illegal?

You know, I thought I was the only one who thought that was a bad slogan. It encourages not only prostitution, but adultery as well. It also encourages runaways to come to Vegas to hide. As far as legalizing it.... I'm not sure. I see the point on taxes and insurance, I agree that most hookers are from bad homes or have some type of emotional problems, but at the same time if we were to say "It's legalized" what would we be bringing our country to? A young girl could then see it as "ok" just because its legal. Just because alcohol was legalized didn't make the thrill stop. We have millions dying from alcoholism every year. I do believe that free counseling should be provided for any prostitue to help see if there is a "root to the acts" that might be fixed.
