The Price of Freedom?

Above: Freedom in a jar

"We buy our way out of jail, but we can't buy freedom." (Kanye West).

I agree with Mr. West, you can’t buy freedom. It’s kind of obvious really; you don’t see many freedom stores these days. I guess they sold freedom in bulk back in the day. I presume that store was right next to “Sentimentality Depot” and “Awesome House”. I guess our economy has really taken its toll on these freedom stores. I wish they were still around; I would love to buy myself some freedom. Maybe add a side of contradiction and a dash of tyranny. This intangible business has really been tanking though. Not only freedom but also continuity is also getting scarce. At least I can still find hyperbole. Oh wait. Right…I can’t. You can’t actually sell anything that’s an abstract noun. 

Prostitution

Online prostitution is the newest social problem on the internet. Forget "cybersex" and "net-loving", people who believe they are safe from the law on the internet sell their body to lonely individuals. The legal implications of this are pretty scary. Craiglist may be facing a lawsuit for "supporting" these "criminals".

Prostitution

I am extremely concerned about prostitution. Not any prostitution, underaged prostitution. I have no problem if one wants to whore themselves out for money, but if someone under 18 is doing it that raises some concern. Not only is it illegal, morally it is well...just wrong. Plus underaged prostitution falls under the umbrella of other problems. Kids who engage in prostitution are often forced to as they suffer form things like poverty and drugs. This is a social concern that one can not hide from.
