Who fucking cares for a dumb whore who didn't plan ahead and buy health insurance???



And how many 19 year-old kids buy health insurance *outside* of porn? Probably about the same percentage as those inside...

Insurance isn't magic. The bills somehow have to be paid. Insurance just lets you average out the costs across a large group so that no one person's bills (such as Nikki's) go out of control - those costs are still there.

The problem with a performer's union is simple: newcomer influx. There's a new one getting off the bus every day. No matter how many performers banded together to start a union the studios would always have an endless supply of new whores willing to shoot non-union.



I am self employed...you can go directly to insurance carriers and buy a nice PPO plan for $100 to $200 per month. That's very little considered what else they are spending their money on.

Responsible 19 year old's have health insurance through their college/university and are still on their parents policy until 25 years old.
