Exactly. And I'm of the school of thought that prostitution should be legal anyway.

But the whole point is that if we believe that a private act between two consenting adults like this should be legal, there is a time to have that conversation.

There is a case to be made that it shouldn't be illegal anyway, but the fact remains that for the time being, it is illegal, and even Spitzer has to play by the rules.

I think that sucks to lose your career over something like this, but doing a retroactive reinterpretation of the law doesn't do anyone any good.
