Turtler here. I just want to note that in a lot of the EU (and beyond), prostitution has actually been legalized. And like good Leftie Eurocrats, they’ve figured out a way to tax that business too. So it makes sense that factors in.
I remember this case where an old cripple claimed (and won!) the ability to hire tax-deductible prostitutes to relieve his pain. Unfortunately for him, the Dutch Hookers don’t like splitting a bill with the state (even though they are dominated by a Socialist trade union...).
I only wish I were joking. But suffice it to say, if the Dutch do it they have probably figured out a system to compute its’ GDP.
