Chris, > Prostitution should be legal, regulated and taxed, as it is in more evolved countries.

Turn America into Amsterdam?

As for Spitzer, consider the fact that he once busted prostitution rings for a living. He won't be able to do that anymore. I guess NY state can always legalize prostitution, but that's really convenient of an elected official to legalize any vice he is guilty of. Maybe he can also have the NY taxpayers pay restitution for the prostitutes and pimps he helped put in jail.

Spitzer threw them in jail when he was AG, he published their faces, which cost some of them their jobs.

Prostitution should be legal, regulated and taxed

Drugs should be legal, regulated and taxed.

By the way, did you know that the prostitution clients get punished in Sweden? Buying the services of prostitutes is unlawful in Sweden. So the Swedish Johns go to Denmark, just over the bridge that is.
