I say live and let live. Government has no business in the private affairs of individuals. Btw, why do you think people from other regions call Beirut the Paris of the Middle East? And let's not even get into the subject of Lebanese Husbands acting as their wife’s pimps. This is a matter for the individual to decide what is best and whether we like it or not we should mind our own business. Do you really think those who wish to travel from Eastern Europe, whether college educated or not, don’t know what they are getting into. As far as Lebanese supplementing their income, sure that’s reasonable but I doubt very much most do not enjoy the promiscuity. To sum up, don’t waste your energy on something that has no measure for regulation.
