Will There Be Less Prostitution if Polygamy is Legal?

I think what the muslim really claim is that when polygamy is legal then prostitution will go away. That is very obvious because things that people do that used to be called prostitution is now called marriage.

However, that’s misleading. The issue is government still interfere in all kind of marriage whether polygamy and monogamy and that would still make most people worst off. It’s not the poly that’s the issue. It’s the “gamy” and government’s “blessing”, “interferences”, and “regulations” that comes with marriage that prevents people from maximizing their selfish interests.

The short answer is yes. To add more details:

Rich men have more houses, more cars, more yachts, but less kids. Why?

Simple. It costs far more for a rich man to produce and maintain kids than for the poor. The same car cost the same to the rich and the poor. The same house cost the same for the rich and the poor. Yet breeding and raising a kid is far costlier for the rich than the poor.

Some of the costs are natural. Rich men do want to spend more money for their children. However, a child need is limited. Once you spend $1 million per child, there’s probably nothing else you can do to make that kid any happier or more prepared to get rich and successful in real world.
