I don't know what the stats are for girls falling into prostitution, but I would think that a majority of them come in from train wreck situations, or really low income no skill situations where this is the fastest or best way to earn money for them or support a habit.
The ones who are supporting a habit might at least get help and find a way to at least get away from the business.
The ones who are low skill without opportunities might at least get some help or access to training.
I watched a documentary on CBC (yes I watched CBC!) about prostitution around the world and there is a percentage of woman that is fairly small that enjoy the easy money and the job itself and legalizing it would help bring them into a protected environment.
Even though I make jokes about stuff like this, I have my doubts that a girl that's raised in a good family enviornment and given educational opportunities is going to end up as a prostitute unless something goes really wrong.
But all we're doing with illegal prostitution is driving it underground and making it far more dangerous on the girls then it should be.
Plus if we set up a brothel by the Peace Bridge we'd have that sum b1tch paid off in no time.
