CL personals seem to be gone in Canada now too

Recommended Posts

tried the beauty section of CL and the add was removed a few hour later.. and def.. not as many responses as before...

On the other hand with CL gone it seems even if there is not so many inquiries at least it seems the ones you get from the other advertising sites are Serious inquiries... not as much time being wasted on stupid people..

It appears as though pros will find other outlets, but I find it irritating that the CL personal ads sections are gone entirely. There was obviously a market, so I'm sure that a replacement will eventually emerge, but it's so silly that the US guvmint would act in this way. I wonder what they think they're accomplishing.

....I wonder what they think they're accomplishing.

 

From a political standpoint they are accomplishing lots. The idea of saving trafficed kids (as well as saving regular sps from themselves) carries a lot of sway with the Christian fundamentalist right, which is the segment that got and keeps this government in power. Whether or not they are doing any actual good ( or actually even causing harm) is irrelevant to them. It's all optics.

No they are putting people at more risk to be hurt and killed..if some cannot find ways to market their self they will resort to more dangerous activities such as the streets

And also taking away our means of living and being able to take care of our families

This is absolutely true, but utterly irrelevant to the people making these decisions. They don't consider sex workers or their clients to be worthy of consideration. They don't care if people are left destitute or dead.

 

And they consider themselves moral...

Unfortunately, you are right Phaedrus. And yet we pay our taxes. The government is OK to take our money, but to give us rights -including the right to advertise to be able to work and earn a living- that's another story. Which makes me rethink how I'm going to deal with my taxes from now on...

I agree with you, except...

 

They don't care if people are left destitute or dead.

 

No, they do care about that. Dead and destitute people will evidence their claim that this is bad and wrong.

 

When we thrive and flourish, in health and safety, it shows them up for how wrong they are. Can't have that.

Yes cuz we spend our money too. It's the circle of ... money ;). And it also helps to keep an economy strong. We have to eat and pay for accommodations, electricity and gas, taxi, food, clothes, nails, hair... it all goes into the pockets of other people who make a living. And the government gets their share. Rinse and repeat. :)

 

Dummies, they think they got it all figured out
