I understand, but I am more interested in prostitution under socialism.  How 
will it work?  In capitalism, sexual favors are allocated by price.  Is your 
problem that prostitutes in Russia are underpaid and the government should set 
a minimum wage?  Should the government establish comparable worth regulations 
to make sure that sexual services of comparable worth receive comparable 
compensation?  Under socialism, will I get a rationing coupon?  How does 
prostitution work in Cuba?  Is it like the healthcare system -- a two-tiered 
system with separate services for foreigners and locals?
