Though we find prostitution to generally be a sad byproduct of capitalism and it's inability to take care of everyone, we still don't want other countries telling us what we can and can't legalize. We urge all to Vote Against this resolution.

thank you for putting up this poll for me.
Vote Against. If for no other reason than to piss off the Puritans.

AGAINST, we hate prohibition which creates unnecessary crime.

Against, for the reason that Neubau gave but equally because of health reasons.
This is looking like another close one, and will be passed if more isn't done. Spread the word, not disease.
