because the market isn't free. it's highly regulated and controlled. artificial scarcity in the rest of the country increases demand, while legal supply is very low, thus creating a price above the natural equilibrium

but if you like it as a microcosm of what you're suggesting: the girls charge different amounts for the same services. The same would hold true in a fully free market. Some are always going to cost more than others. It depends on what one is willing to pay and what the other is willing to accept.

I'm just assuming that since he so readily scoffs at a PhD in Psychology, that his must be in something that he deems more worthy

But you mentioned prostitution in your OP. Really prostitution is not what you're asking about in this thread. The price of prostitution whether legal or illegal is not the topic here. You essentially asked what endentured servitude would run you for a year. Those are two very different things. My guess is that if a market for this emerged, then only the very rich would be able to afford it. I don't think you'd be able to afford it on 30-40k a year, which i think you mentioned on page 1.

doesn't matter. In a true free market, you get to set your own rules. The market will determine if you stay in business or price yourself or have other business practices that harm and hinder your business.

but it begs the question about racism in legal prostitution....would they be forced to service whomever was willing to pay? Like a restaurant, retail store, or whatever? might make my proposal more enticing as I am in the preferred demographic of white in white collar.

in fact, the cost of a man would go up dramatically if prostitution were legalized. In other words, women would have to invest more resources in men and be more willing to capitulate to men in
pretty much this. Men got the better part of feminist movement (freer love). And any decriminalization of prostitution would result in more pussy than any man could handle. Women would literally throw it at the men on the first or second date, to try to capture a man to breed.

In theory, I have no problem with prostitution. If you look at it strictly as a business, it is a contract between 2 people for services rendered. I also don't have any moral objection to it, but I might be in the minority.quote:

This isn't legal, free market prostitution. This is more like regulated stand in line and pay for sex. In a true free market, which is what we are discussing, the parties come to their own terms. Period. If someone doesn't like the other's terms for whatever reason, they do not enter into the contract.

This would have nothing to do with it if you couldn't come to an agreement. That's what free market is; free. Each person names their terms and conditions. If both agree and then can agree on a price, enter contract. If at any point they do not agree on any issue, then they do not enter into a contract.

oh i have no problem with what 2 people do between themselves; I'm just saying only a loser can't get a date and have dinner AND dessert rather than actually buying sex. AND I think that you would see not much change in the caliber of woman who was out selling the pussy if it were legal. You would still have the skanks for $20 or whateer and the high class call girls. I seriously doubt a huge influx of hookers would appear . Contrary to popular opinion many men actually WANT relationships to, and I doubt a huge influx of customers would occur either. Jahel would finally get laid though, so there is that.

You aren't paying for sex. You are paying them to leave.
