Should Prostitution Be a Crime?
I strongly believe that making prostitution illegal only creates problem by driving prostitution underground and favoring human traffic and abuse.<p>An open society should make prostitution legal but also regulate it, institute regular health checks for the workers, find a way to ensure that there are legal ways for both prostitutes and clients to do the transaction in a safe environment and be tough on any abuse that happens outside of the law.<p>Some countries like Sweden have started penalizing customers but that, while the government claim that it&#x27;s been efficient and shows that there are less streetwalkers nowadays in Sweden, the opposition claims otherwise by saying that prostitution just moved to online venues and that there&#x27;s been an increase in sexual tourism by Swedish Nationals.
