Best argument against Legalizing Prostitution I've seen
This is an amazing article. In Germany, prostitution is now legal (a position I used to be in favor of in my libertarian days). In many countries, if you are receiving unemployment compensation, you are not allowed to turn down jobs you are qualified for without losing your benefits. Further, brothels in Germany are now going through the official government channels to find new "workers." Thus, an unemployed waitress who turns down the opportunity of joining the glamorous and profitable oldest profession risks losing her unemployment benefits.

Inquiring minds want to know if your 'libertarian' days happen to have a significant overlap with your 'dateless' days.
Dateless? Moi? (World's shortest joke: Pretentious? Moi?)
I assure all inquiring minds, my support of legalization of that particular service was purely on principal, not on practical grounds. I'm not sure I can say that for all products I wished legalized, but of this I will speak no more.
