This whole anti prostitution thing is kind of disappointing, honestly, if people want to trade goods for services, the government should not intervene.


The real problem being addressed by government intervention is preventing human trafficking and exploitation of minors among other reasons ...

My reason to post this item on this forum is to highlight potential problem solving opportunities that may exist for hackers :-)
