Sweden's Prostitution Solution: Why Hasn't Anyone Tried This Before? | Solutions

Sweden's Prostitution Solution: Why Hasn't Anyone Tried This Before? | Solutions:

Here is an novel approach to prostitution. Who do you put in jail/prison, the John or the Jane.

This Swedish approach didn't decriminalize prostitution, which apparently has it's own problems. It totally decriminalized for the prostitute, but criminalized for the John. Read the logic and how surprisingly well it has worked since 1999. Also, what it took to support this change in mindset. And how it virtually eliminates human sex trafficking.

When you take this change in mindset into the laws against drugs, where half of the US prison population is non-violent drug offenders.  Lots of implications for lots of old school crime and punishment.

Hmmm...
