This 6 page paper examines some of the reasons why prostitution is a crime in most parts of the United States. Issues concerning such inherent dangers as disease, drugs, other criminal activity, tax fraud, etc; are focused upon. Interestingly, the writer argues that the government is actually more concerned with preventing safety-conscious 'high class hookers' from earning millions of tax-free dollars than they are from saving the 'victimized' inner-city street corner 'working girl' with nowhere else to turn.
