Bailout for the Porn Industry?

I knew this was coming: Porn industry seeks federal bailout.  The Internet and globalization have hit Penthouse and Girls Gone Wild Pretty brands pretty hard.

A bailout for the Porn Industry makes just as much sense as one for the Big 3, Boscov's, investment banks, or state governments - which is to say, none at all. But given lobbyists for those business/government have been successful (or seem to be on their way) to convincing Washington politicians to award them taxpayer funds, there is no doubt that every business should see that as a winning business model.
