In Cuba the girls pay taxes on their income ? the only citizens to pay income tax a few years back.In Cuba they put the girls in jail. The clients have no problem with the law.
Pichardo that bunny farm will have to be the size of Santiago!!!
Pichardo's bunny farm is a perfect example of GOs/NGOs central planning calamities in the making. Saw it in Asia. Happened in Chile. It will turn out to be a more debauched form of slavery than free people making free choices could ever imagine.
and i see some dominicans are opposing this idea as well claiming that delegalizing ho services will push the problem out of the open and into hiding and that means less control, more diseases and certain abuse.

Don't worry, THE CHURCH will never let it happen in the DR. Or will they?
Awaiting news from on the scenes reporters for tomorrow's (Tuesday's) up cumming events regarding JOHNS in Sosua.
Question: Any insight as to how this is currently affecting Sosua? I.E........is passions and CMP still open? Is it still bussiness as usual on the streets? Anyone from Sosua willing to chime in with accurate info particular to the subject area?
I think "pushing it into hiding" is exactly what the goal is by arresting JOHNS.
it is. but having it hidden is worse that regulating it. in hiding equals abuse, human trafficking, forcing women into prostitution. hiding means creating victims. while it is in the open you see what is happening. taking it out of sight is pushing it into the world of darkness, ridden with crime.but then i cannot imagine dominican society that values appearances more than morale regulating ho business. it would mean openly admitting that dominicanas can be hos and dominicanos use their services... not a rosy picture.

And hence why insignificant! Pedro Clisante is but a street, and a mini-street while at it.
The whole xrated biz can be had in a handful, workers and all.
Try and compare that to the whole picture of the area for once and get what being less than 0.01% means in significance when it comes to $$$ economics.
The economic negative impact is so negligent when it comes to the whole picture which is why there's a new plan to clean-up the area.
Men chase girls everywhere in the country, it's not endemic to Sosua in the DR. Its the way it's being done that creates the negative outlook of Sosua in overall terms for non-sex driven tourists to the DR.
60-70% of any business is far from being insignificant. Those numbers would take years to replace cause families are not coming to Sosua anytime soon. If the girls are gone, so will be the tourists and you'll see many businesses closing, owners leaving and lots of Dominicans with no jobs. So the government can then take ownership of taking care of them as well.
The prostitutes themselves for not having an alternative to make a living with given opportunity.There are many reasons and factors that drive people to become prostitutes, none of which involve having wanted to for the pleasure of it.There's no pleasure for the workers involved in prostitution, only the monetary gain, if much.Who do you postulate the victims to be?
Yup! There is a legal team working on the wording that will allow authorities to do this without recourse from the fined individuals. It will be a civil penalty, not a criminal one to be fined for it (at first). Pimping on the other hand will be prosecuted as a criminal act and felony.PICHARDO, will the police post pictures of the primary perps they pinch? News at 11?
There will be bars closing, I'm sure of that. And a good thing, too, as far as I am concerned. No town needs as many bars as there are now in Sosua, many of which opened after prostitution got out of control.
I first came to Sosua in 1986, before the prostitute invasion. There were prostitutes then, but not to the present scale and not as visible. There were bars, too, and they were doing a good business. Just not as many as at present.
I am sure there will always be bars and prostitutes in Sosua, but in my opinion less is better than more.
It is my understanding from previous threads that the mayor is working with developers who are interested in investing in Sosua, but not in a sex town. I wish her success.
