Just wait until the people propose taxing elected politicians the same amount of money they might collect for taxing everything else under the sun. Then use the same argument the politicians used. Maybe a future president could issue an executive order. Could raise a lot of money to provide support for trafficked girls, curtailing sugar consumption, what ever arguments politicians have used in the past. If the elected politician can't pay the full amount of tax, he or she can work for free if they proposed a similar tax in the past. Any pensions paid by US taxpayers could go towards their tax payments.

Just saying lifetime senator pensions could be used to pay taxes since it is going for a good cause.

Unfortunately they can serve one term and still collect lifetime pensions at taxpayer expense.

Such a hard life, groveling at the public trough and banging the staff, men and women.

What a stupid idea! Charge customers $2 - to be paid in singles - that will get lost in government administrative costs - that could otherwise go directly to working strippers to support them! This guy is an idiot! He should be put in time out for proposing such a stupid tax!

Sex trafficking is largely a myth. In Arizona, sex for pay between consenting adults is prosecuted as "trafficking." If a minor is involved (provider or customer, real or sting), it's "extreme trafficking." The idea that any substantial number of women are enticed to come to the US and are then forced into sex slavery against their will is just delusional.

I've heard this nonsense about AMPs in California. While the "trafficked" girl drives up in her BMW.

I bet the strip clubs just steal 50% just like any other cash business.
