A few reasons the Government should back off!
 

I was just wondering if the people in the government had stopped to think of what would happen if they put a stop to the adult industry??

For example:
What percentage of all computer sales go to adult webmasters, Hosts, and the comapnies that support the net?? IE phone companies.

What percentage of the connections to the net would be closed?? T1, DSL, Cable modem, satellite,

What percentage of software sales?? Firewalls, anti-virus, development tools, etc..


Does anyone know how much Phoenix made from the event they just held for the adult industry??
How about Vegas and Hollywood for INternext??
Or the one in NY, Canada, and I think that I heard of one in England!!!

How much travel income will those places loose??

And how much will the travel industry loose??


Now down to the things that the webmasters, programmers,tech support, billing, owners, models and graphics designers, internet attorneys, extra people at the isp to handle, calls, software installs etc. purchase with the money they have earned??

For instance:

Cars, homes, land, clothes, travel, exotic pets, jewelry,


and the associated bills!!!


What happens to the companies that partly rely on these people and the money that they make?? Can you tell me that the owner of the largest online creditcard company is going to sit and watch the government take 50% plus of his income???

Even american express stated that they were also going to take adult charges. Does this spell tons and tons of money to anyone??

Right now the people of this country support the government in their efforts abroad, and will most likely supporth them at home as well. I just hope that they remember when the thousands of people from the adult industry can not pay for the toys they have, and the common person can no longer surf the net without fear of the government comming in their house and arresting them. I hope that they remember that they backed this absurd attack on the net porn. INstead of trying to get rid of crooked politician's, and locating the missing children and stopping the drug problems in this country.

And lets not forget how many " Decent " programmers and computer people will loose their job because of the fact that there will be an influx of more experianced people on the market. We all know that the programmers and sales for adult have to work much harder and faster than in any other industry, so how will the common programmer keep up?? They wont. The companies will end up dumping them for the slightly lower paid but faster and more experianced " Adult " programmer, webmaster, call taker, designer, etc...

And I hate to say this but my wife would buy a dress modeled by Gauge faster than by Elle!!!


Looks like alot of the models my have someone to compete with.


I am sure that I have left a ton of things out, and I am a small webmaster that loves this industry. But I was just wondering if anyone had thought of these things???


Well I guess that since the economy in the US is soaring out of control, it will be ok, to level it by removing the adult industry!!!


OK. Im done, so now you can all yell at me and tell me I'm stupid and I dont know what I am talking about. and the ever famous GFY!

But you never know!!! :321GFY :321GFY

no quarel w/ your points... i for one would love to see the current administration just vanish into thin air tomorrow. ah, if wishes were horses..

The government doesnt like 'the internet' :2 cents:

That's because the Democrats invented it... at least that's what Al says.

Well gobigtime it does not really matter what we like and dont like. It is what supports us.

I dont like sitting in front of a computer 60 hours a week, but when I want to go on vacation, I get up and go.


If they loose the income from the internet, they will ALL loose money.

Think about how much money Canadian hosting companies will be making if Asskroft gets his way

PornGuy, do you live near Disneyworld? You can't be serious. You think the DOJ gives a toot about pornographer's contributions to the world. OMG that's the funnies post I've read today. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

My question there Brisk, is how long will it take before the US says, that if they dont stop the adult industry, they ( US ) will stop with any aid, or what ever??


And dont forget that the government will do it's best to arrest adultwebmasters from other countries and try them here and punish them here!!!

KRL, You are right. At this time they dont. But if you do the math, it is not worh messing with the adult industry!! How many BILLIONS were made last year, when the rest of the economy was crashing???

BILLIONS not millions!!!!!

The adult industry mostly supported the internet!!!

How many regular internet companies went out of business, while how many new adult sites, from different new companies came online???
