Germany Pimps it's unemployed.

| | Comments ()

Now that prostitution is legal in Germany, if a woman turns down a prostitution job, she loses her unemployment benefits.

Telegraph | News | 'If you don't take a job as a prostitute, we can stop your benefits'

"Now that prostitution is no longer considered by the law to be immoral, there is really nothing but the goodwill of the job centres to stop them from pushing women into jobs they don't want to do."

The problem as I see it is that when the goverment removes the sanction of something becoming immoral, is magically becomes moral. This woman is being treated like she is an unemployment fraud case because she is not willing to participate in a "moral" profession.
