I have voiced here before that I think things that do not interfere with someone else's civil rights should be legal. This would include prostitution. Who is the victim in prostitution? Not the prostitute, not the john. Prostitutes are sometimes victims of their pimps as teen runaways, part of the slave trade, etc, but that would be greatly reduced if it were legalized. Besides the health benefits for participants (and therefore, reduced medical costs for tax payers), we could tax it.
