(10,960 posts)Your claim that public health costs in LA are unendurable, as a matter of public finance, because of the porn industry is, of course, a lie.
The total health costs associated with STDs in the general population are, of course, vastly higher than costs associated with porn performers.
What laws do you have lined up to regulate the general populace? You have established what chlamydia rate demands this sort of government intrusion, right?
So where is your condom law for everybody? It would save LA roughly infinity more money than this law.
What is the AIDS rate in the general population versus porn performers? How about different sub-groups versus porn performers?
Do you favor a law criminalizing all unprotected gay male sex? I do not, of course. I'm a reasonable person. But how could you not favor, nay demand (!) such laws, by the standard you are promulgating here?
Yes, you are SOOOOOO concerned about public health.
What is the Chlamydia rate in the poor population of LA? Do you suppose there are economic classes, neighborhoods, ethnic groups, who exceed certain disease average by more than 28% to 20%?
Are you proposing a law that poor people, for instance, have to use condoms in all cases?
If not, why not?
It is your right to hold revolting attitudes, but please don't pretend you are motivated by pressing public health concerns.
