Indecent Exposure

You gotta love Larry Flynt and Joe Francis for one thing: exposing for the nation just how ridiculously indecent the bailout-mania has become.


Seriously, from my perspective, they have just as much claim, maybe even a more righteous claim, to a government handout as any other legal business venture.
The bankers and the Big Three have only themselves to blame for loaning money to people who couldn't afford to pay it back, or paying a work force too much to produce cars that would not sell.

So those guys screw the pooch, and now they want the rest of us to keep their business a float?

Maybe we should bailout the porn industry first.
I'm pretty sure Joe Francis and Larry Flynt haven't sabotaged their businesses with bad decisions, such as photographing ugly women nobody wanted to see anyway.
Move them to the front of the line.

I doubt they have sabotaged their own businesses, but they are competing with an incredible amount of free porn easily accessible via the internet... If they want to keep their businesses going they'll need to offer something we can't get for free.

Porn and newspapers, both defeated by Craigslist.

Now given the "success" of companies that get federal money, would this be a great way of eliminating the smut business? :^)

jade: you get your porn for free? damn, what am i doing wrong.

mark: maybe we should tax craiglist to help support the papers and the sex workers.

bubba: i thought we were trying to SAVE the smut business.

There was a contest online to come up with the best slogan. They were awesome.

I bet if you google for them you'll find them soon enough. After a few distractions, I'm sure.
