  4. Prostitution • A group of sex workers has taken political action recently to see a change in the law • The group says that the current laws make many women unsafe since they need to fear both their clients and the police • Their opponents say that legalization would harm more women by encouraging the exploitive practice of prostitution

  5. Car Insurance • It has been suggested that a change to the insurance industry should be made. That all drivers pay the same amount unless their driving record causes it to change. • Young drivers would see a massive reduction in their costs • All drivers over the age of 25 would see a significant increase to their costs.
