Do you think porn or prostitution does the same thing?

2019-08-02 22:22:21 UTC  

There can be arguments for limitation of those in some cases

2019-08-02 22:22:26 UTC  

Or at least some porn goes too far

2019-08-02 22:22:27 UTC  

I'll have to look at data

2019-08-02 22:22:43 UTC  

But at least in these cases you can easily say

2019-08-02 22:23:11 UTC  

Markets exist to serve the people, not the other way round

2019-08-02 22:23:33 UTC  

How isn’t this serving the people

2019-08-02 22:23:44 UTC  

Granted I understand it’s weird

2019-08-02 22:23:48 UTC  

But

2019-08-02 22:24:01 UTC  

It’s still a transaction

2019-08-02 22:24:07 UTC  

This is promoting degeneracy among the society and breaking the social cohesion

2019-08-02 22:24:08 UTC  

Both parties benefit

2019-08-02 22:24:13 UTC  

Cocain is also a transaction

2019-08-02 22:25:11 UTC  

I don’t have a problem with that as well though I would honestly never do drugs myself

2019-08-02 22:25:37 UTC  

But even so cocain is much different then bath water

2019-08-02 22:25:50 UTC  

You are not taking into account externalities of such transactions

2019-08-02 22:26:19 UTC  

I don’t think the government should be able to ban it

2019-08-02 22:26:28 UTC  

As I already said, it promotes degenerate in the society which is harmful in the long run

2019-08-02 22:26:31 UTC  

Because banning it hasn’t fixed it

2019-08-02 22:26:51 UTC  

The government should absolutely ban it, there can be ways to properly ban it

2019-08-02 22:27:10 UTC  

But the government cannot properly ban it tho

2019-08-02 22:27:16 UTC  

If ban isn't fixing it because of illegal drugs, then improve the police force

2019-08-02 22:27:23 UTC  

There are ways around it

2019-08-02 22:27:41 UTC  

But throwing money at it doesn’t fix it

2019-08-02 22:28:24 UTC  

Do you think weed should be banned as well?

2019-08-02 22:29:06 UTC  

As I said, I'll have to look at the data

2019-08-02 22:29:12 UTC  

I haven't for weed and porn

2019-08-02 22:29:14 UTC  

Cuz many years ago people though that was worse than a lot of the “bad drugs”

2019-08-02 22:29:27 UTC  

But in some obvious instances, the answer is clear

2019-08-02 22:29:44 UTC  

Like with coccaine and abhorrent practices like selling pee

2019-08-02 22:30:03 UTC  

We already ban selling of bestiality porn

2019-08-02 22:30:07 UTC  

That is also a transaction

2019-08-02 22:30:18 UTC  

i can agree with you that they are abhorrent

2019-08-02 22:30:42 UTC  

but i that the goverment shouldn't play a role in this

2019-08-02 22:30:55 UTC  

They absolutely should

2019-08-02 22:30:57 UTC  

I think we should regulate weed like alcohol

2019-08-02 22:31:09 UTC  

Government is not a sterile entity meant to do nothing

2019-08-02 22:31:16 UTC  

They are a force to advance society

2019-08-02 22:31:24 UTC  

That is why we have democracy

2019-08-02 22:32:04 UTC  

let me rephrase my statement the government shouldn't get involved in some cases and in the other cases they shouldn't ban it but regulate it

2019-08-02 22:32:22 UTC  

i agree with @SkeF
