Alright, scriver, I'm seriously questioning your logic at this point. I'm not certain where you get the basis for any of this, really. If prostitution is illegal, no one will do anything to stop sex slavery. Everyone involved will have commited some crime, and as such will save their own hides. If there is no penalty for being a prostitute, hiring a prostitute, or owing an establishment for the making of money through prostitution, then not only can regulatory officals be hired to ensure there is no disease, abuse, or trafficing going on, but every customer who suspects somthing is up can call the police without getting arrested.
This is true. But you also have to realise that legalising prostitution does indirectly legalise trafficking. Take for example the EU, where EU citizens are free to travel across all borders (especially for work purposes). Surely, you realise that it would lead to a kind of "sex emigration", where whoreganisations (yes, I am so proud of that pun I used it another time) would hire poor people of poorer countries to sells sex in richer countries. You said above that people will do anything for money, and this is also true, but it doing something because you feel it is your last way out does not mean you are doing it out of your own free will, or that people should stand by and let it happen. Even in a case where above events happen completely within the law, I can not say I feel it is a good thing (and I guess, neither do you).
I guess the whole rationalisation of the deal makes me uncomfortable on a very basic level. Even if I realise it is making things a little bit better, I can not help but feel as if people are sticking their head in the sand when they say that "hey, it'll help
some people". I called you (people) out for being naive before, but I realise now that this is me being unreasonably idealistic - I want to help all people out of the prostitution business, even those that "chose" that path.
I am sorry scriver but it seems that it comes down to one basic fact.
You think regulating a industry will make it harder to control.
If you think this, then either you have misunderstood everything I said, or I have made a poor attempt to express myself.

It is now over 3 a.m. here in Sweden, and I am so tired I can hardly make any self of my own mind any more. Also, I admit I got caught by the "somebody is arguing with me on the Internet! I must reply, even if it will completely take us away from my original standpoint!" -fever earlier, and I did come out of it until now. So yeah, /talk it is.

They evolved into us though, mostly becouse they killed every other species that might have
No. We killed them. Neanderthal weren't primitive modern humans, the were a separate species who lived in the same time frame as early modern humans, before being killed off/outcompeted.
We did inbreed with them, though. Neanderthal genes has been found within the majority of the human population, with the exception of Africans.
