Our Porn Bureaucracy
Truly, The Adam Walsh Child Safety and Protection Act, which comes to us courtesy of former Rep. Mark Foley, is a neverending bounty.
The Department of Justice wants to come up with an official list of every porn star in America—and slap stiff penalties on producers who don't cooperate.
The new rules, proposed under the Adam Walsh Child Safety and Protection Act, would require blue-movie makers to keep photos, stage names, professional names, maiden names, aliases, nicknames and ages on file for the inspection of the department's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section.
"The identity of every performer is critical to determining and ensuring that no performer is a minor," according to the new proposal.
Given the longstanding tradition of legal compliance in the child porn industry, I don't see how this can possibly fail to solve the problem.
