But the industry leaders said the issue is a nation in need. "People are too depressed to be sexually active," Flynt said in the statement. "This is very unhealthy as a nation. Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex."

Haha
Sex is super nescessary. I mean, these guys are clearly experts on the topic XD

Lol if they DO get the 5billion then thats stupid >_<

7th Jan 2009, 03:17 PM

Wow. Their argument is pathetic. Porn<cars. Plenty of people need cars to get to their jobs (or school).

littledinosaurs · 7th Jan 2009, 03:45 PM

hahaha
how much money are they putting into their stuff and not getting paid for that they need 5 million??

Daniel · 7th Jan 2009, 03:51 PM

Just wow.

BlakeHarmony · 7th Jan 2009, 03:54 PM

wow... that's... cool?
I can't believe it! It's so funny!

Nixon · 7th Jan 2009, 08:23 PM

there not getting it no way

crystaltriforce · 7th Jan 2009, 08:26 PM

what they aren't desperate enough to blackmail the people who buy porn? because (with a few exceptions) no one wants to admit they watch porn.

George · 7th Jan 2009, 09:58 PM

I'm not surprised one bit. Generally in recession the sex industry thrives, but not so many people these days would want to BUY porn what with the free sources out there.

OMG...

sdc91 · 8th Jan 2009, 10:11 AM

Everyone realizes that's $17 per U.S. citizen that would be contributed to porn... right? What family of 4 would be willing to give up $70 of their hard-earned money to an industry that doesn't need it? lol

starfish · 8th Jan 2009, 05:45 PM

So I guess they are looking for a money shot.

Grof142007 · 8th Jan 2009, 05:58 PM

Omg i Heard this on the radio lol it so funny

listen up world · 8th Jan 2009, 06:01 PM

Uh... Wow. Why are they even bothering to ask?

Paralyzer · 8th Jan 2009, 06:20 PM

Now I bet all those people who didn't get their diploma's and decided to whore their life away are gonna be mad that they have to go back to school to make a decent living...

And I said that out of ignorance :P I don't know the qualifications for being a porn star or whether they make a decent.
