IMO the best way for the actresses/actors to protect themselves without government regulation is to pool their efforts for better and safer conditions. Are they eligible for the SAG and would SAG membership be advantageous?




It would never work. Unionization requires some sort of comeraderie in order to prevent scabs. But porn stars are too desperate not to pick their scabs. No strike would ever take hold so long as someone needs a fix.

Good thing, too. If you are going to be a libertarian and support the right of free people to make a living as they see fit, so long as it doesn't involve physical force, then you need to support anyone's right to take any job they are willing to take, no matter how much someone else wishes they could hold out and be paid more for it.
