I think it should be at least decriminalized, I'm not sure how legal prostitution will help street hookers though. If you're a 50 year old drug addict with herpes who has worked as a prostitute for the past 10 years, you're not going to get a job at a brothel nor are you likely going to leave the profession so what happens to these types? And they're the majority of sex workers. Whenever this topic is discussed this fact is never really brought up. Yeah, a legal brothel is a nice idea but they're not hiring anyone with an STD or the old, ugly, disabled, prior felon, or addicted. They'll still be on the streets.
