I recently watched an interesting program on Netflix about mega brothels in Germany. Ironically, whether in Las Vegas or Germany where prostitution is legal, the men are still in charge of financial rape. Women in brothels are made to pay a fee for the privilege to work there. The supposed status of a prostitute as an individual contractor for tax purposes or a saleswoman who forks over a huge cut isn’t working, except for the boss men.
The house argues they are providing the brick and mortar as well as all the accoutrements, therefore they should get a cut.
That’s great, but who else shows up at their job owing money before they even start working? Well, I’ll tell you.
Fishermen.
Nowadays, these guys have to pay for the right to fish before they can fish. They have been turned into reluctant whores who can truly appreciate the plight of the prostitute.
These two age old professions should join hands to fight the man because the indentured servant line has been crossed in both of these realms.
It’s fricking biblical, except no one back then could have foreseen the corporatization of fishermen and prostitutes.
What would Jesus say?
