Its not a private business fault that US did not create a legal framework protecting sex workers and instead continue facilitate exploitation and traffiking by keeping it illegal.

US have legal porn industry and its strictly regulated and mostly safe for those wofking in it. Imagine how it would look like if it was illegal too.

Are you proposing that forming an S-corp somehow eliminates an individuals moral or ethical obligations?

It does not since morals and ethics are relative.

Having legal framework and regulation solves problems with exploitation and traffiking though.

If sex work is illegal there will be pimps, illegal ads, criminal organizations facilitate it and abuse.
