Making Prostitution Legal Everywhere

"That may be true where you live but I'm talking about every state in America. Where I live, there is no such thing as a license for being a prostitute. If money is involved, they can get arrested. They can't get a license in my area." Actually brothels are the buildings that are actually licensed and the prostitutes, the contracted workers, are legally allowed to sell sexual services, but any prostitution outside the licensed brothels would be illegal prostitution. Yes I understand that they do not have it in you area, because Nevada is the only state in the United States that brothels are legal. There are countries that have already legalized prostitution such as Netherlands, Germany, Austria and New Zealand but this has impacted the Netherlands with child prostitution dramatically in a 5 year period; 4,000 children engaged in prostitution during the year of 1996 and in the year of 2001 it has increased to 15,000 children involved in prostitution according to The Amsterdam-based ChildRight organization. So legalization of prostitution may most likely lead to the results of children prostitution. "Actually, that may come out as a positive thing because where prostitutes won't make as much money, they might try to live an honest life or maybe they will just lower their price" Contracted prostitutes in state licensed brothels are capable of setting their own prices for any services at any given time, so therefore they would only of course absurdly raise the pricing of their services when there is a customer that they find repulsive. They of course would not do this to everyone because they would need to pay for their staying at the brothel. I would say the contracted prostitutes are already living an honest life due to the fact that they are not in the streets and paying the costs of their living which includes eating, and sleeping, at the brothel. "Making prostitution legal would break the link between their managers or pimps. These individuals subject prostitutes to physical abuse and threats of violence, retain a portion of their earnings, and often encourage them to become addicted to drugs. The provision of a secure environment in which to work would allow men and women to be independent of these individuals." Actually there is no real proof of that it would break any such link a pimp has against the illegal prostitutes. In fact if legal brothels are state owned and so technically there is still a manager or pimp, which of course would be the state. And by what I have read there still happens to be forced human trafficking in the Netherlands, so there of course would still be pimps abducting and using violence for human trafficking and would easily be concealed in the opened as other legal prostitutions go on. So, It would still be unlikely for men and woman to be independent from pimps. "Legalisation of prostitution would bring clear economic benefit for governments. A tax on the fee charged by a prostitute, and the imposition of income tax on the earnings of prostitutes would generate revenue." By which you would be referring to legal brothels because that is where prostitutes would most effeciently be controlled by the government and taxing of the clients. State brothels are better alternatives to prostitution "everywhere". "The problem of a high concentration of sex tourists in a short number of destinations will disappear once a larger number of countries legalise prostitution. Supporting this motion, therefore, will reduce the problem of sex tourism." I agree with that thought, but do not agree in trying to globaly make other countrie's cities into the Netherland's Amsterdam. I would like a better alternative than Amsterdam, because in the Netherlands prostitutes are not required to have mandatory health check ups...... so they might be dirty, not like they already are lol.
