so you're advocating for regulatory capture? That'll go just like the legal pot industry; prohibitively expensive licensing that only goes to the already big players in the game.

Except the sex industry isn't at all as scalable as the pot industry. You can't grow a field of ass and sell it yourself.

Plus, the cost of entry is pretty low, I hear.

Wow, if prostitution is legal that means we can have prostitution startups, and prostitution IPOs! Corporate prostitution backed by SoftBank and Saudi sovereign wealth! What a world we're making!

I’ll permit regulatory capture, rather than accepting “pimp-hand” capture.
