Porn Industry Wants $5 Billion Bailout

TMZ reports:
Joe Francis and Larry Flynt claim the economy has made America's sexual appetite go limp, so they're going to the one place where sex is always rampant -- Congress.

Flynt (the "Hustler" guy) and Francis (the "Girls Gone Wild" dude) are asking the government for a $5 billion bailout, claiming the adult entertainment industry has taken a huge shot to the face because of the downturn -- citing the fact that XXX DVD sales are down 22% from a year ago.
Is there any limit on what government can spend money on? Why is Larry Flynt any less deserving than Fannie,Freddie,AIG or GM?
