Solutions??? you mean a posteriori blabbering confusion, suggestions at best... Psychology as a rosetta stone of human psyhe is definitely a bunch of Bollocks. Just because it makes sense to the orator and the rather intellectually and of course emotionally weak audience does not make this travesty of science any factual. Men have the potential for evil, some of which disregard the consequences of their actions for whatever reason and act upon it. Starting from the founding axiom of psych which asserts we all go through different experience and states of mind shaping and formulating that ability of choice mentioned above. Only to end postmortem analysis of a handful of individuals to come up with an encompassing pattern! Madness! It's really simple treat the problem on a societal level, the greater good.
sorry but pusher eliminates free will, though the line is blurred as far as coercion is concerned. And for the drugs, again if it were her choice then she bears the consequences to the series of events following.
My point out of this it is to simply pinpoint that someone's view ona certain issue should follow rational rigor and not submit to personal affliction.

You did read it wrong. “I simply will not get into this discussion as an argument.” This means I wont make it an argument but gladly as a discussion.
But I find it hard to discuss wither man kind is affected by its environment and that we base our judgement and decisions on experience. Its like having a serious discussion with someone saying the earth is flat…

In one of the papers here recently, I read that out of 22 prostitutes in our main jail in Dublin, 21 were heroin or cocaine (I think mostly the former) addicts, and one was an alcoholic. They might not constitute a well-distributed sampling, and Dublin isn't necessarily a good typical case, but it seems likely that a lot of prostitutes have a drug problem.
Certainly, poor immigratants seem to make up a lot of the prostitutes. I read a piece recently about the Belgian system, which pointed out those people as being victims even in the legalised system. Again, it's hard to generalise from that alone. Is Belgium typical there? How many immigrants were we talking about? etc.
Do escort girls come into this debate? Surely that's all meant to be platonic.

Is that indeed what I had said?? if you read carefully I actually gave psych some merit. it would be absurd to contend that we don't learn from both our exp's and the people's around us. But where you err is in asserting that free-will is dependent on the experience. Free-will being innate, precedes the experience. Exp's and 2nd hand knowledge shape our beliefs and convictions. But as those grow in number and especially in opposites it is ultimately our burden.
That's an excellent question. I'm not sure, but I think the article said that at least some of them started on drugs before they became prostitutes. That said, I think some of them were abused and started at a shockingly young age too. Unfortunately quite fuzzy. I'll see if I can dig out the article, but I suspect it was in the Sunday Tribune, which doesn't have a site.
