I disagree

Well the values and laws of America are libety

Part of the preamble is to promote the nation's general welfare

Yeah but look at article 1

the enumerated powers

That's the axiom I take when I look at the role of the federal government in the united states

And even the elastic clause I don't think supports banning prostition

But you do see where I'm getting at, I look at things from the effect they will have in society

I don't think it's right to use the government to dictate morals to people, whether your believe prostitution is ok or not is a moral issue I believe, not a problem of the welfare of society.

Well what negative effect does prostitution have on the general welfare?

For me at least, the worst I've seen is them siting in corners and looking gross, which is no different than what someone in poverty does.

Sitting on corners*

Moral degeneration, taking away the sexual drive to make a family by instead blowing your load into a whore

Well let's be real here FLanon

Anyone that is morally ok with getting a whore, has personal issues anyway that wouldn't have made them a good father.

Adding another avenue of revenue to young women who shouldn't be selling their bodies on the streets

It's about encouragement, the effect of an action.

Prohibition does have its place in society.

No see that's to far I believe

That's using the government to dictate morals to people, instead of encouraging people to naturally grow up support American morals.

When you're told something by the state, you do it because it's law, not because you want to

You're not nurturing those values you cherish

By removing the things you disagree with

The issue is we don't really live in a society that would discourage prostitution if legalized

Well than as you've told me.

Change that.

Yep

The only people that support that crap are degenerates

Mock them, tear them down.

Make progressives the enemy.

Not the things they support

Until we get to the point where we come to the ultra conservative christian nation, we keep prostitution illegal.

I don't think so.

As of the status quo, there is nothing good that can come from removing the prostitution prohibition.

Until the people believe prostitution is wrong, there is no reasonable way we can make it illegal.

It is illegal though

I mean, even white Christian America

ditched prohibition

Yeah, of alcohol

Through amendment procress.

yeahi thought you were talknig about that too.
