An AP story hails the benefits of Sweden\u2019s approach to the prostitution <emphasize>bidness<\/emphasize>, hinting that we oughta take a closer look at it ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>Nine years ago, the &#8220;enlightened&#8221; Swedes decided that prostitutes should not be subject to the force of law for selling their intimate goods &#8212; because it wasn\u2019t their fault. As one official put it: &#8220;We don\u2019t have a problem with prostitutes&#8230; we have a problem with the men who buy sex.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So under the &#8220;Sex Purchase Law,&#8221; prostitutes are off the hook;regarded, legally, as the &#8220;victims.&#8221; But men who pay for sex face fines and jail terms of up to six months. Swedish legislator Marianne Eriksson recalls that when she introduced the concept to the Parliament, it was ridiculed. &#8220;It was the most absurd thing they ever heard,&#8221; she says. &#8220;Many of them roared with laughter.&#8221; Well that laugher has since died&#8211; especially after some Swedish judges were caught in sex scandals, including a Supreme Court justice who was fined after he admitted to paying for sexwith another man. (Idiot! You pay them to <emphasize>leave<\/emphasize>!)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, you probably think such a law could never pass here;it would turn the sex <emphasize>bidness<\/emphasize> on its head,as it were. You\u2019re wrong, folks.America\u2019s victim industry is alive and well. So the ground is laid, just waiting for the seed to be planted &#8211;so to speak, of course.
