Bad puns abound over Joe Francis and Larry Flynt's request for a $5 billion bailout for the "Adult Entertainment" industry. I probably shouldn't even waste my words on this topic but couldn't resist.
The have a plan: With the $5 billion, they would "invest in building new means of distribution, and shoring up our distribution right now to prevent further erosion from factors like Youporn and other Internet content that has seriously affected our business over the past few years," Francis said in an interview with FOX Business. "We will use the money wisely, and we will create more jobs." (from the article below)
So to the many that are currently laid off, fear not, plenty of jobs on the way...I am glad they will use the money wisely and with others' interests & well-being in mind because as they say, "People are too depressed to be sexually active," Flynt said in the press release. "This is very unhealthy as a nation. Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex." (from the above article)
Interesting that Mr. Flynt suggests that to not participate in adult entertainment, porn, whatever you want to call it, is unhealthy. Maybe this is all a publicity stunt to stimulate their business. But even if it is a stunt, just the fact that these guys decided to give this a try makes an interesting commentary on our culture. I will leave it at that.
So let's see if they drive in their hybrid to DC as they promise...to show how much more upstanding they are than those raunchy car makers.

heard about this today..my first response was “outrageous!!”…but then as I thought more about it..I felt so very sad..that this is the state our nation is in. Was there not a day that to see this kind of craziness even make it to the airwaves as an interview would have been unthinkable? This nation was built on honoring G-d…yet look how incredibly far we have come from that! What is honored more is money, perversion,deception,idols…on and on…
apply much prayer to all this damaging nonsense
