Poll question: Johns or Pimps?
I was thinking about the piece in LBN about child prostitution flourishing on the German-Czech border. Who is more at fault, the people who organize these kinds of prostitution rings, or the people who utilize them?

...Sort of a supply and demand question. Who's worse? Where should the world focus?

1. Supply side of course
Doesn't free enterprise take care of its own problems? :puke:

2. Without the demand, there would be no supply.
I believe the demand for prostitution created the "profession".

3. Both
Just because there is a demand doesn't require a businessman to fulfill that demand. That one would is capitalism at it's worst.
