I agree with that. If it was legal the traffickers would not have much of a market. It's ironic.
I'm not so sure. It is illegal to hire immigrants without the proper papers but it still happens. If they legalized prostitution they could still bring in women sex slaves if it wasn't regulated right. Regulation in this country is a problem in a lot of areas so I doubt we could get it right on a grand scale. It works in Nevada because it is a much smaller number.
I don't get that comparison. Legalizing prostitution would lessen the market for human trafficking while illegal immigrants are needed because they dominate the cheap labor market until some alternative comes in to make that kind of work obsolete.
Not saying human trafficking would never happen but it would certainly lessen the market for illegal activity
