Gets away with what? Is it illegal? Lots of big chain merchandisers, grocery stores, etc do the same thing. The days of the mom and pop grocery, hardware, corner store, etc. are numbered. Get used to it.



It is against the law to sell a item below cost to run someone out of business. Wal-Mart got in trouble for doing this with their meds. They paid a big fine. So depends how and what they do.

What if the woman was no longer in a condition that would get 35 Euros? I guess they never have markdown sales for older merchandise over there.

something about morals.

Heh, you are saying it is the job of the government to regulate morals? It is funny that you say that because that is THE reason people migrated across the Atlantic en masse. Personally I am against prostitution, but I am also against regulation of morals by the government.

That's not a very fair comparison...... Cicciolina has waaaay more morals :D

Yeah, she openly campained on the platform, "Down with nuclear energy, up with sexual energy." Nothing behind closed doors there.

my morals are not your morals.. just go to a muslim country:)

just think of it as an extended massage. no harm done:p harm IS done when this kinda sh*t is made illegal and unregulated:p

anyways, was she hot or something? cuz unless she was.. a low balling ugly hooker = scary indeed. even if she were hot it would make one paranoid.

What exactly does "below cost" mean when we get down to prostitution? The cost of the hotel room? The condom?
