Porn Industry Considers Leaving L.A.

As far as totally corrupt and exploitative industries go the porn industry is the worst of the worst.

They demand people risk contracting AIDS as part of their terms of employment.

LA has the right idea and should be applauded for caring enough for the lives of the workers to stand up to the brutal exploitation of the corrupt porn industry.

Bigwigs in the L.A.-based porn industry are understandably considering leaving their homebase of Southern California. L.A. City Council authorities are attemting to push through a regulation that would police adult film sets and would require that all adult film performers wear condoms during scenes.

According to this article:
[The] effort took a serious leap forward Tuesday when the Los Angeles city council voted 9-1 to grant final approval to an ordinance that would deny film permits to producers who do not comply with the condom requirement. The measure now goes to Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa for approval.

Before the measure can take effect, however, the council has called for the creation of a committee of police officials, the city attorney, state health officials and others to determine how it might be enforced.
Currently, Los Angeles is known as "the porn capital of the world," with over 90 percent of American porn films currently shot in the San Fernando Valley, inside Los Angeles city limits. It is said to be an $8 billion-per-year industry.
