Follow up to the German Sex Trade question

There is a great deal of controversy about whether Germany really would "force" a woman into the sex trade against her will. It appears from roughly translated articles in German newspapers (so much for machine translation) no woman would be pushed into the business if it wasn't her wish, and no woman would lose benefits because she refused to go. That is, of course, what every woman wants to hear.

Now for my enormous caveat. Governments all over the world are similar. Rules are established, and unless codified, exceptions are hard to implement, let alone enforce. I hope Germany has codified the exemptions required to allow a woman to avoid being forced to work in a sex based industry or lose unemployment benefits.

In the last year I have read several stories about the results of the enforcement of US deportation laws. Children, who were adopted as infants by US citizens, but who never finished the citizenship process, can now be deported after age 18 for conviction of non-violent crimes, back to the country of birth, even though they have no family there, no means of support, and have never spoken the language. Reason? It's the rules!!

Let's hope there are no cases where an "officious" un-employment officer decides to enforce the rules!
