Being that it is "regulated, the state of Nevada is obviously butting in on this. Not that I have a problem with that. A federal law prohibiting all prostitution I would have a problem with though. There are many who choose to give and receive and both parties are ok with it all. As far as the underage stuff, the sex slave trade and all, that stuff falls under the minor statitutes and kidnapping is a federal crime in and of itself. Existing laws take care of the problem, however enforcement of them may not. Not everyoe understands the difference between a good law and bad enforcement of it.I'm completely against sexual slavery too. However, what you describe is really the result of illegal prostitution. It doesn't describe the legal brothels in Nevada. When it's legal and regulated, we avoid almost all the problems that happen with illegal prostitution. In the legal brothels, you don't have sex workers beholden to a pimp and forced to work. It's a case as in any other profession where a worker can choose to work or to quit and do something else. It's a case of consenting adults choosing to have sex. The only difference is it's done as a paid service. Even if you did find a pimp tyrant at a particular legal venue, it's one that should be shut down for not adhering to the regulations. I salute your desire to keep women safe. However, legalization is one way to accomplish that.
