Las Vegas slowdown: prostitutes taking it hard as Johns slow down

Last month I wrote about the slowdown in Las Vegas: the city has among the most hard-hit real estate markets in the country, and traffic is down as Americans travel less as they cope with high gas prices. Vacancies are up and room rates have fallen by more than 20%.

And yes, the city's brothels are reporting slower business, according to the MSNBC video below. Business is down as much as 25% at some locations, and some think it could get worse.
