President Bush Boosts Porn Industry With Economic Stimulus Plan, According to AIMRCo

An unforeseen and surprising beneficiary of the Economic Stimulus Plan, a plan that George Bush contends will "boost our economy and encourage job creation," has surfaced this week. An independent market-research firm, AIMRCo (Adult Internet Market Research Company), has discovered that many websites focused on adult or erotic material have experienced an upswing in sales in the recent weeks since checks have appeared in millions of Americans' mailboxes across the country.

According to Kirk Mishkin, Head Research Consultant for AIMRCo, "Many of the sites we surveyed have reported 20-30% growth in membership rates since mid-May when the checks were first sent out, and typically the summer is a slow period for this market."

Jillian Fox, spokeswoman for LSGmodels.com, one of the sites reporting figures to AIMRCo, added, "In a June 15, 2008 survey to our members, thirty two percent of respondents referenced the recent stimulus package as part of their decision to either become a new member, or renew an existing membership."

The economic stimulus plan, which includes a check for up to $600 for individuals and $1200 for married couples (among other benefits), is the product of an agreement between House leaders and the Bush Administration, focused on reviving a struggling economy in the wake of a flagging economy.

Fox also added, "Getting more people to buy porn was probably the last thing Bush had on his mind when he came up with his 'stimulus package,' but we'll take it."

AIMRCo is a non-profit organization that specializes in gathering, interpreting and distributing data on the online adult market. Through surveys, interviews, and information analysis, we attempt to assess trends and opportunities in the Internet market capitalized on by adult paysites, affiliate sites, and traffic trading sites. Using our connected network of over 400 paysites and 2000 affiliates/traffic trading sites, we gather the data necessary to make informed market trend assessments.

I'd lay it on the Dems a heck of a lot more than on Bush. The Dems voted for it too, but if they hadn't of taken our tax money so earnestly in the first place, the stimulus wouldn't be needed. Every year could be a stimulus year .

Do you drive on public roads? Use a hospital or a phone or electricity? Ever call the cops? Send your kids to public schools? Expect the State National Guard to come help with wildfires? Use a public library? Chances are your Federal taxes pay for some of that. I guess that's what ticks me off most about you "conservatives." You are happy to use the benefits of what all our taxes have built and services provided, yet you'll scream and whine all day about paying your share.

Paying our share? I was reading just the other day that almost 60% of every dollar earned in the U.S. goes towards taxes.................in one form or another.

I don't care who you are, liberal - conservative - or even Martian, you should be shocked and outraged at this!!!!!!!!!

BOTH sides of the aisle are dipping into our pockets at an alarming rate.

What do you want the government to do? Take 100% of our money and send us back what they want us to live on? :roll:

For you to say that taxes are going towards infrastructure is a joke.

SOCIAL PROGRAMS are the largest expenditure in Federal spending!!

For those that think we need more taxes, I PROMISE you the Feds will take every donation you send them. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I almost forgot!!!! The bottom 50% of wage earners in the U.S. are paying only 3.07 percent of total income tax paid in 2005. Hint---Those are the ones receiving the SOCIAL PROGRAM money!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no problem paying my share, and willingly do so. Off the top of my head, I figure I'm paying close to $20,000 a year for those services that you list. My biggest problem is that others not only are not paying their share, they're taking it out, and their "efforts" are generally accomodated by a program initiated by the liberals.

I have to shake my head at libs who supported the payments, but then also support Obama who promises to raise taxes. If you realize the benefit of sending out stimulus checks, why don't you realize the damage that high taxes cause?
