BBC News - German city of Bonn taxes prostitutes with meter
What makes me laugh though is that they pay their taxes in Siemens:lol:

hahaha, i know it sounds funny m8, and it is, but tbh it is a step in the right direction to where we need to be. prostitution has been quoted as "the oldest profession", whether that's true or not it has been going on for thousands of years, and the idea that it will stop by making it illegal has always sounded laffable to me.
moving on from there tho, and the real reason why i like this post, is that u can apply the same logic to drugs. u ent got a hope in hell of stopping it from happening, so instead of persisting in spending billions of pounds of our money on a fake war u can't win just to make urself look a bit better at the ballot box, why not do sommat a bit more sensible instead? and this is OUR money they're pissing down the drain for no reason grrrr
how much do we spend on the "war on drugs"? and how much good does it do? the "drug pushers" that are hated by so-called normal society wouldn't even exist post-legalisation. i saw a guy from some massive brewing company portrayed on bbc news as an upstanding member of society the other day, bleating about how his company's profits weren't high enuff. him and pablo escobar are exactly the same, both sell (or used to sell, i know that pablo was effectively murdered by the USA) drugs on a massive scale, the idea that there is a difference really annoys me.
rant over lol

Id wager we spend millions of pounds on these "Fake Wars" - The "underbelly" of society that everyone partakes of but the pious wont admit to, the things that against all logic and reason are illegal-
It generates billions of pounds to keep the status quo, keep them illegal. Thousands of jobs in hundreds of agencies to fight these evils..
The world would be a safer place if drugs and prostitution were removed as power bases for criminal gangs, but the apperatus of state has to much invested in ,policing, lawyers, courts, prisons, prison guards, rehabilitation, probation
its a fucking industry like any other

not sure if it would make much of a difference over here m8, but the conspiracy theorist in me is thinking that companies like haliburton must be making a mint for the americans to be so keen on it.
the really annoying thing tho is that dope is actually decriminalised in some states, seems like it's only in the rest of the world that they think it should be illegal.
