We're stopping your unemployment benefits....

Under Germany's welfare reforms, any woman under 55 who has been out of work for more than a year can be forced to take an available job ? including in the sex industry ? or lose her unemployment benefit. Last month German unemployment rose for the 11th consecutive month to 4.5 million, taking the number out of work to its highest since reunification in 1990.

And here's a prime example of good ideas gone horribly wrong. Is it *really* that hard to segregate the sex industry from all the rest? Or is it just the sex industry lobbying to keep the law the way it is?

😕
 
Ulrich Kueperkoch wanted to open a brothel in Goerlitz, in former East Germany, but his local job centre withdrew his advertisement for 12 prostitutes, saying it would be impossible to find them.
 
thats so wrong, i can see how being on a phone sex thing isn't all that bad

but at a brothel you can get diseases and what not

to be blunt, the job could ruin your life and/or literaly kill you
 
(note im not trying to be sexist)

but im sure if the MEN that wrote the law or what ever were faced with the situation that Citrix brought up (" imagine this, you are a guy looking for a job and a male gay brothel is looking for prostitues and pick you... ") they'd be doing everything in there power to change it
 
I could just imagine the brothels insurance rates going up after someone was forced to worked for them.
