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.

What do you guys think of this? Again we have a supposedly "well intentioned" government which can now help to influence women to become prostitutes. The solution? Cut taxes, end welfare and give citizens more money to invest in the economy and create jobs.

That is insane, but not surprising since it is Germany. But, it really isn't all that much different than our system of unemployment. After a certain period of time you can lose you benefits, this just takes it to a whole new level.
