I guess this is like what they did to take down the US mobsters in the 20s... Tax their illegal income and then bust them when they don't pay.
I'm pretty much in favor of legal, regulated prostitution (must be 18, must have health checks, relegated to specific areas, etc....) as my view is that most legal relationships are very often a form of prostitution anyway. You think that any time a 20 year old marries some 50 year old movie star that that's really about "love"? Plenty of cultures have arranged marriages which are, in many ways, business transactions. In work situations, people sleep often use sex as a way to advance their careers, etc.... I remember a recent incident in which a US celebrity was accused of rape and he promptly bought his wife (who was not the victim) a 2 million dollar diamond. That wasn't a business transaction? Have you even took a job or looked the other way simply for $$?
Anyhoo....
