I've been saying this for years. Not only that but once legal and in the regular market, companies are held liable for any additives not clearly labeled. No cutting your heroin with fentanyl unless you label it as such (bonus points if you have to give ratios of each ingredient) but aren't on the hook if someone goes against label usage.
This protects both the consumer and provider.
Similarly, we should fully legalize prostitution. Want to kill the sex trafficking problem? Legalize prostitution, allow the workers to unionize, get legal support, and other securities that the normal blue and white collar workers have.
In a win for unionizing sex work (albeit in a different form than prostitution), a group of strippers in a Portland Oregon strip club have unionized!
That's actually fucking dope. Anyone know how the union is doing ~1 year later?
I can't speak to that, though I tried to look them up and find out but there are just a couple of articles from a year ago. But they basically just joined a much larger union of 50k+ actors and stage workers. I imagine they're making headway.
