WASHINGTON (CNN) — Another major American industry is asking for assistance as the global financial crisis continues: Hustler publisher Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis said Wednesday they will request that Congress allocate $5 billion for a bailout of the adult entertainment industry.

My initial reaction to this was how ridiculous but after reading the reasoning behind it, I like it.
Quote:
“The take here is that everyone and their mother want to be bailed out from the banks to the big three,” said Owen Moogan, spokesman for Larry Flynt. “The porn industry has been hurt by the downturn like everyone else and they are going to ask for the $5 billion. Is it the most serious thing in the world? Is it going to make the lives of Americans better if it happens? It is not for them to determine.”
Just wondering why they didn't do this earlier if that was the point they are trying to make.

... It's not for "them" to make a determination on the REST of the jack@$$clowns who have their hands out for OUR money either. They've already gotten it ONCE ... go back to Financial Management School and actually LEARN & APPLY something this time!!! Or go under ... I really just don't care anymore ... We catch h@!! if we're one minute late on our collective bills and have everything taken away or shut off if we don't pay up ... they should be held to the same standards ... ALL of them!!
