Political Prostitution - at least Eliot Spitzer was only whoring himself out; to his credit, he didn't trade in the virtue of his children for a seat of power, did he?
These legislative attempts to control political prostitution will never yield the desired results. Special interests and influential lobbyists will always, always find a way to maintain power and steer the course of events in their favor.
Similarly, sexual prostitution will continue so long as there is a market for it. This means that as long as there are men willing to pay, there will be women willing to sell their body.

The news shows little of the widespread prostitution of this nation, because nobody really cares about the average Joe that, for whatever reason, seeks the company of an “escort”, nor about the woman who has reduced herself to listing her body for sale.
Instead, we hear over and over again about prominent individuals that dabble in such promiscuous activities, like so many of their lesser-known counterparts. It seems that the bigger they are, the harder they fall.
