I know I'm reviving an old thraed here but can somene explain to 2 cums that you cant make a 30 dollar PROFIT off of a test that you only charge 25 dollars for. Not to mention AIM has to pay the lab either 22 or 24 dollars(I"M not sure which) ITs either a 1 or 3 dollar profit.
2cums, Where did you get that 30 dollar profit from? They alos charge I believe 85 for the pcr test and pay the lab 45. Thats forty dollars profit, not 50. Then pay the emplyees, workers comp insurance, phone, electrical, rent, the 3 doctors on staff, and everything else it takes to run a clinic that sees 1200 patients every month.Even someone with your limited math skills, and even more limited knowledge about what it actulally takes to run a medical facility can figure out that this place runs on a very tight budget...Even the biggest moron could figure that out.
So for the record 2cums, where did you get the information about the 30 dollar profit on the std tests? Or did you just make it up? But then again, I dont really know if you have the intelligence to even make up something so completely absurd and so easily refuted with the facts.
P>S> Rob, you[re right about running a deficit every year. But the companies donate VERY LITTLE to AIM. Donations form production companies comprise about 1.5 to 2% of all the donations to AIM. This is perhaps the saddest thing in the adult industry.. They might all say the right things abouht wanting to prevent disease, but they put NO FINANCIAL BACKING WHATSOEVER behind their words. I'ave read other sites and articles that talk about donations to AIM from the laarege produscftion companies. THAT IT COMPLETELY FALSE!!!!!!!!!! THEY DONATE NEXT TO NOTHING!!!
And 2cums, aim actulally takes in about 100k every month, mostly cash, of which about 65 to 70% goes directly to the laboratory to pay for the testing.At least try to make your bullshit semi believable, and getting at least one or two of the facts correct would help once in a while too..I think it would be safe to say that you know almost nothing about the way AIM operates, and what their role in the adult industry is> And your personal attacks on sharon mitchell are quite juvenile, not to mention patently false. But its obvious that the truth has no place when trying to intentionally misinform and inflame the very people that AIM is attempting to protect. Thier job is difficult enough without complete MORONS like you sputing this uninformed, complete bullshit.
