Legalize, then tax it and regulate it. Seems fairly win-win.
Pholeus, can you tell me exactly where the US government has made it illegal?

hint: you can't because it hasn't. Prostitution is legal in Nevada and Rhode Island (although brothels aren't). The only tax that the feds would get is from income tax.

Want to try again?
