Endurance

There is no such thing as a well-regulated, safe, sex worker industry anywhere in the world; violence and trafficking by transnational criminal networks do not go away with legalization, they just become more difficult to stop. The industry is run by some of the most ruthless, murderous elements of organized crime on earth, and they are never going to willingly relinquish control of the women and children they brutalize daily for huge financial reward. Expanding the industry through legalization will only make them and the politicians they own richer.
