Trickle Down Theory Affects Prostitution...by Sybil Adelman Sage

"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" takes on another meaning as whorehouses closer to Reno and Las Vegas report business is up this year while rural brothels have had a decline as high as 25%.

Nevada brothels along Interstate 80 and US Highway 95 rely on long-haul truckers, who account for 75% of their business. If you're wondering why your shipment doesn't arrive on time, this explains it. But with diesel fuel costing significantly more this year, truckers have been forced to cut back on their "rest stops".

The Shady Lady Ranch along US 95, one of the whorehouses that's had a drop in business, is planning to offer gas cards to loyal clients, their version of a Frequent Flyer Club.

Let's hope the trickle down theory cuts down on trafficking.
