In my country (the Netherlands) prostitution is perfectly legal and I see no reason why it shouldn't be. I'll bet you every single one of you has heard of the Red Light district in Amsterdam.
Both the prostitute as well as the client are doing this completely out of their free will. No one is forcing them to. If a prostitute is forced to be a prostitute, she shouldn't be the one that gets punished. It should be the person forcing her.
The prostitutes make a heck of a lot of money and mostly they chose to do it to get them through college. These prostitutes actually pay income tax and are obligated also to pay Value Added Taxes. So, the government is profiting from it also.
