Comments on: Get in line Larry Flynt! the porn bailout needs to wait its turn just like the rest http://sarahmcarr.com/american-culture/larry-flynt-bailout Ramblings from a Social, Zealous, Fashion Loving San Diego Chick.

I agree with Global Patriot, I'd love to see these CEO's spend time in prison and feel the pain and fear the average joe's and jane's are feeling. I would actually take things a step further though and replace our ENTIRE government. There is so much corruption in our government it makes me nauseous thinking about it. Has it kicked in to everyone that we just bailed the big three auto makers out or more specifically United Auto Workers and there retiree's? If Larry Flynt understands how much of joke our government is I hope everyone else does or that doesn't say too much about the general public.

It's just frustrating how much this whole thing has snowballed. There are companies that received billions of dollars and they literally have NO clue what to do with it! They're holding onto the money because they don't know when we'll hit rock bottom and don't even know where/how to spend it anyway. So shit, if the government is going to continue to print money might as well give everybody a hand out right? Geezis. Thanks for your comment, Mark.

This whole "we totally tanked our industry and now want the taxpayers to bail us out" is getting sick. So here's my deal, for every dollar handed out to one of these failed companies, one of the executives who caused the problem in the first place gives up a dollar of their personal wealth (matching funds!) and spends a day in jail. So at this point they owe us 700 billion days in jail, plus they clean out their bank accounts, lose their houses, cars and all the diamond tiaras bought as Christmas presents. In his own way, Larry was saying "if we spending so much to get screwed, we should spend a few bucks to save the porn industry" - very poignant commentary.
