Should the U.S. Legalize and Regulate Prostitution Similar to That of Amsterdam’s Policy? Why or Why Not?

Question by Lil’D: Should the U.S. Legalize and Regulate Prostitution similar to that of Amsterdam’s Policy? Why or Why Not?
The legalization of prostitution would alleviate a lot of work for our police force, allowing them to focus better on felonies which are much more serious and is a better use of time. More importantly, it would provide AT LEAST hundreds of millions of dollars annually for our economy and NOT to the Black Market and with government regulation added, it would help to control sex trafficking therefore putting abusive pimps out of a job now because the prostitutes would be legal sex-workers with certain rights and protections under law if we change the policy. What I think is most though is that a person should have the right to spend his or her money the way he or she wants so long as it doesn’t hurt others. Plus, it’s not for me or anyone else to tell somebody, especially a stranger, what to do with his or her own body!
More imortantly I mean to ask if prostitution should be legal. Not necessarily the Amsterdam model.
