Prostitute, what would you do to survive the downward economy?

From the looks of it, this story may seem like an attempt to promote prostitution or to sell sex of some kind but I assure you that things are not as they appear to be, at least in this case.This story is tale of survival and the difficult decisions that hard working Americans have been forced to make due to this horrible economy. Let me explain, a little over a year ago there was a women who was a hard working underpaid American like so many of you. She was also a student perusing the American dream as she started a graduate degree program. Soon after, she lost her job but received unemployment benefits and she knew that would soon have a Masters Degree. Therefore, she was saddened but was not depressed because she was looking forward to the bright future that was ahead, so she thought. She had also begin to write a business plan for a family business that she co-founded thus, she was not the least bit worried about her future. To move things forward, it has 6 months since she completed the Masters Degree program and the business plan. Unfortunately, the business did not receive the grant that she requested. Disappointed, however she had over 10 years of work experience in her field and a prestigious Masters Degree so, she started applying for jobs. Nonetheless, there were no call backs and at this point she was really struggling to pay her bills. She had no choice but to decide weather to pay a bill or go food shopping.

Not being able to make ends meet, facing foreclose, forced to file bankruptcy, cant find a job and now twenty thousand dollars in debt from student loans, she begin to research ways to make money online. That is when she came across a website that freely promoted prostitution under the name "Escort". She turned away from it, saying to herself "This is not me, I could never do that". Six months later, her situation had not changed. She was hungry and up to my neck in bills. That's when she decided to take another look at that website. So, she said to herself, let me post an add and lets see what happens? What happen was, the money came fast, she was finally able to pay her bills and go food shopping. Happy ending right? except she was constantly living in fear of going to jail, constantly in fear of meeting a Craigslist killer, or being exposed to HIV and other STD's. The point is this, how is it possible that we live in a society where you can work hard enough to earn a Masters Degree but still have to resort to prostitution? How can they tell us that engaging in these types of activities are wrong and illegal without offering any other alternatives? If this young women were to become homeless today, society would also look down on her as a freeloader, a beggar or a loser. So you be the judge, in this situation what is right or wrong? What is moral or immoral? At this point, the women's future remains uncertain, she still has not found a job and is considering remaining a prostitute. This is simple an attempt to bring awareness to the reality of the economic crisis that we as Americans are facing today. So as you read this article remain objective and show it to others in order to give them insight on the reality of our country.What an injustice, a person with a graduate degree has to resort to prostitution. Many of you will say, I would never do that, she is just a whore but I ask you to think again because you never know what you would do to survive. You could be just like this young women, never say never.
