Americans believe such contrivances because they are made to believe them. It's easier for the US gov't. to act, in an otherwise deplorable manner, on things like drugs or pornography if there is public consensus that these are huge terrible monsters that need to be stopped.



One of the most lucid, straightforward, concise statements on WHY things are the way they are. Hav2 is like Alonzo from "Training Day" with his shotgun..."Surgical with that Motherfucker"

But can you blame them? This is the business where more A/R is collected with a baseball bat than a trade discount, where check bouncing and kiting is common (you think anyone in Porn Valley knows what a controlled disbursement account is?), and the local currency among the whores is a monetary unit called the "Gucci."



I could write a small paper on this very topic...one of the "uncomfortable" truths of the scene...a number of things substitute for cash in the "Tit for Tat....or...TIT.... or TWAT" aspect of many porn starlets' lives/careers. The most OBVIOUS being drugs/pills. Soooo many anecdotal accounts of this very phenomena, as well as a couple first hand experiences, drove this point home to me over the last several months. Gucci bags no doubt figure in it somewhere, but BLOWJOBS dispensed by pornchicks for all manner of goods and services is what impressed me the most. BJs are better than Traveler's Checques in Porn Valley for many girls...

Exchange rate/table for San Fernando Valley:

$100 = 1/2 Gucci Black T-shirt (retail) = .167 Gucci Classic Handbag (retail) = 15 Vicodin ES = 20 Xanax (1 mg) = 1 Full BJ w/swallow if you are not fat & ugly, No swallow if you Are Fat & ugly = 1/2 of a 10 minute Doggie Style/No Face to Face Contact Fuck

*note* Gucci Items, of course can be had for Much less via wholesale or Online outlets like Stylesell.com, but hey, who's gonna admit to that amongst these chicks?
