Quote:And, of course, minors should be prohibited from the profession.
There are laws on the books concerning this issue -it is called statutory rape. They exist because minors can't give consent no matter what.
We don't have to create new laws. We just have to eliminate this bad one.
There's isn't any good reason for it as I can see.
There would be a greater chance to eliminate pimps and many of the criminal elements perhaps.
And like with the liqueur tax and the gambling tax and the cigarette tax a it makes for a source of income and revenue.
I would be interested in knowing it's down side.
