I though the economy and job market is thriving?

Wouldn't that mean that people should be buying and spending in porn

[freecartoonporn]

recession is coming.

The economy and job market is thriving. And yeah...our business has picked up considerably to the point that I just bought all new camera gear a couple of months back.

Opportunity is everywhere...doesn't mean that everyone has the ability to grab it.

Robbie doesn't understand that Trump's skyrocketing inflation and China tarrifs means we are paying a lot more for food, services & hard goods.

Robbie's excuse as Trump fails is now "You're too stupid to take advantage of Trump's magical economy". He picked this up from the GOP blaming taxpayers for their failed middle-class tax cuts. The GOP blamed the middle class Trump taxpayers for not knowing how to take advantage of the tax cuts for the rich.

But you don't launch any new sites.. no programs do anymore. zzzzz

If the Porn industry was doing good and programs were making money then they would all be launching new sites constantly like they used to do back in the days rather than shutting down their affiliate programs.

So if the economy and job market is thriving, why do farmers need to be bailed out to the tune of billions and billions of tax payer dollars? Why are companies going out of business? Why are they shutting down car plants?

Why was only twenty thousand jobs created last month?

In all fairness, a lot of us in the industry along time who shoot our own content for our own sites, don't broadcast new sites on GFY or other adult boards.

We learned from the producers who did that and posted the next day how their whole site was ripped and on 20 tubes. Over & over again this happened to independent producers on adult boards. Bigger studios trying to fuck with your merchant account with mass chargebacks, etc. We hide our current active sites now, protect our content as best we can, and have ways of getting new customers that are under the radar of tubes & the thieves that feed them fresh stolen content.

I don't know Robbie's situation but I do know that of many others like myself. This is how we are still in business & not like the rest.

I never wanted to launch any new paysites. I shoot OUR stuff myself, write it, edit it, cast it, upload it, promote it.

I've had lots of people WANT me to do sites for them...but I don't have any time for that. I'm not some big company. Just a one man show.

And the reason the big companies aren't doing much is because they are making all their money off the big tube sites that bought them out already during the previous years.

Dude, the porn industry wasn't killed by the bad economy. It was recession proof (just like bars and hollywood movies and strip clubs and prostitution).
The porn industry was first brought down HARD by piracy. And now everything is "free".

There are still porn companies actually SELLING PORN (like me)...but most of the "big" ones have moved to a new "business model" where the actual porn is no longer sold...but just used to bring in mass traffic and ad revenues.

None of that has anything to do with the roaring U.S. economy.
