I don't believe that the majority of people are in the prostitution industry because of the money, the good hours, or the working conditions. What got me in this particular example was the dollar value. There can be no price but on a person, IMHO, but even if there could it would be easier to understand the one that does it for millions vs. the one that does it for the price of a hamburger at McDonalds. In either case, what can be done? Create a foundation a la Christian Children's ministries except one to help keep girls out of prostitution? Send missionaries? Sending aid to government certainly does not work. Would these communities change if money was provided? @AG: Of course you’re right, AG.
