Again, I don't see much in the way of slavery in the US. And I would advocate the same level of regulation for it as exists now in a comparable (if not equal) industry, adult film.
Um, driver's licenses? SSN? Other governemnt ID? And I think that inspections would not be unreasonable. People don't fret when the health inspectors check out the local diner, why should they when they check out the local brothel? I hardly think you'd see inspectors storming a room while the gal is mid coitus.
What's your point here?
I still have yet to see you answer my question in my first post (if indeed you oppose it on moral grounds): why does the simple exchange of money make an otherwise socially accepted act immoral? If you oppose it only on the grounds that it would lead to increased slavery, well, I just don't see that happening in a well regulated industry. It certainly would be an improvement over what we have now.

The adult film is
self-regulated, but what does that even have to do with the topic?
I know you want it regulated in the US.
Why are you using an example like a diner? The police don't need to raid diners in order to see if they are in compliance. Maybe if illegal diners were around, that analogy would make sense. But they aren't, however, so you still need to explain how police or a regulating body would be able to differentiate between legal prostitutes and illegal ones without random raids on brothels.
And yes, jons are not going to appreciate being raided. Eating at a diner while it's inspected is not likely to ruin a marriage or create tension at home. I really hope others reading this realize how ludicrious the analogy was.
Obviously, the articles aren't about what would happen in the US, because it isn't legal here. Yet, they examine two places where it is regulated and legal, yet slavery and exploitation have
increased.
You can't see the correlation between the two? You don't see it as a large problem in the US?
I can't help you, then. The articles made the connection more than clear. I also already pointed out that the sex slave trade is a huge business in the US. If you want to refuse to believe the fact of the matter, whatever.
It's becoming apparent that you want to be able to buy sex, your position has little respect for the women you want to buy sex from.
