If you thought it was a bit ridiculous to bailout the banks and auto industry, you are bound to think the latest bailout is completely insane. Larry Flynt and Joe Francis (the dude who invented girls gone wild – said to be working on bais yaakov girls gone wild) have teemed up to ask the government for $5 billion in bailout funds.
I understand how the recession hurts the porn industry, after all the only people who pay for porn (I don’t know anyone who does) are wealthy people who can afford to. I understood paying for it when dial up was the fastest internet out there, but who wants to pay for something that is free.
To me the porn industry is similar to the American car makers, people want cool efficient cars – the big 3 couldn’t deliver so we bought Hondas and Toyotas. Same thing here, you offer it for free and no one wants to pay.
