Umm...it happens all the time. Businesses hire illegal immigrants to cut costs. They treat them as basic slaves, in horrible conditions. Yes I do think legal businesses would do that since THEY DO THAT. Simple enough. Denial of the sex slave trade is bad, and the belief that all those Russian and Hungarian and Chinese sex workers in Europe and in North America are freely doing this shows how gullible you are.
How many out of legit buisnesses do that? Nobody is denying that their are loads of illegal sex trade workers and that because the industry itslef is completely unlicensed and unregulated. The same checks and balances that exist for legal buisnesses would exist here.
One thing you are neglecting is that these women are lured here under the pretense of legal employment of one sort or another. Once here and turned to prostitution they get told point blank they are comitting crime in Canada and will be severely punished if they go to the police. Thats why they don't until either caught in a raid or they know better. A legal brothel would help this problem because just like any liquor inspection they can easily do the same for the girls and their credentials.
legalization helps solve problems. It doesn't create them since they already exist and no evidence has been shown to say that it exploded the problem.

You're right, all those problems exist now, and if we legalize them, those problems become hidden under a cloud of legality. Also, believing legal prostitution will end illegal prostitution is another fallacy since legal tobacco hasn't ended illegal cigarette smuggling, or legal alcohol hasn't stopped illegal alcohol smuggling. Pretending that these brothels will stop the spread of STDs, or the stopping of the sex trade is false, because they still happen even in countries with legal prostitution. One broken condom and boom, you have a massive STD outbreak. The porno industries have these every once and a while as well
Nevada has legal prostitution, and yet there are still many illegal prostitutes, why is that?
Hidden? Nope. Brought out into the open. Enough of the strawman fallacies. making prositution fully legal would in fact end illegal prositution. What you mean to say is that legal brothels won't eliminate street walker variety prostitution. Thats right. Despite legal brothels in Australia there were girls on every corner on virtually every street of my apartment. So what? Legal brothels still mean protected services, medical access, and some sort of job security far exceeding any non-legal prostitution offers.
BTW, yes I do believe these brothels are a step to reducing STDs. Legal brothels provide all the medical protection and services needed. Illegal operations don't.
Sorry but your argument is simply based on ignorance.
That illegal street walking exists even in the presence of legal operations are for a number of reasons all of them not dealt with under a fully illegal system. Some cannot work in legal brothels for medical reasons and are barred from service.
Every argument you can think of is actually a reason for legalization. Most people simply have a personal problem with it so they want it to remain illegal.
How about the people who view alcohol the same and believe that making it illegal will minimze the drunken fights outside bars, cut down DUIs, cause less familiy violence, improve health, ........
Its freedom baby yeah!
