Reply to "Puritan Watch"

This is great because it shows out the massive hypocrisy at work. It's excuseable to vend porn if you're a corporate hotel but not acceptable to consume porn if you are an ordinary citizen. It is excuseable to vend porn if you are a corporate hotel but not if you are a cable teevee porn channel. It is excuseable to vend porn if you are a corporate hotel but not if you are a porn production company. It is excuseable to vend porn if you are a corporate hotel but not if you are a porn actor. A corporation's right to make profit trumps every other single consideration -in effect the MORALITY OF MONEY is the ultimate highest value not the morality of 'civic (religious) deceny'. What's a politician to do, answer to their ultraconservative extremeist base or answer to the corporations that actually finance their being able to run for office? I also like the ultraconservatives branding the hotels and their individual patrons as creating a dangerous place populated by perverse citizens whose habits tangentially create crime. The corporate hotel as red light district. As has been said on these boards before, porn IS part of the community value system, just that it is part of the ECONOMIC value system. If it were not part of the mainstream value system it wouldn't be vended as a common amenity at thousands of upscale hotels. The average business traveler is a 'pervert'.
