Anti-prostitution laws: legislating control over our bodies?

Do you think progressives would be more receptive to prostitution legalization if the issue is framed as respecting an adult's decision to control his/her own body? Forced labor/slavery would still be criminalized just like it currently is in every other line of work.

Is it fair to associate "Johns" as "human/sex traffickers"?

For example, society doesn't associate illegal drug users with drug trafficking.

I'm just looking for opinions, not trying to undermine the issue of human trafficking.

Prediction: Mueller's full report won't be available to the public for decades.

I believe the findings will be so disturbing, so damaging to the country, that the AG won't release the entire report to the public. And, I think future administrations will also keep the full report hidden.

Instead, the public will get a massively redacted version of the report.

Bad news for California's High Speed Rail project.

It looks like Gov. Newsom is pulling the plug on the project. I am very disappointed...close to depressed about the current situation.
