Consumerist says "ordinary people so broke they cant even buy porn"

Here's a fun spin - the schtick is that first people stopped gambling, now wont even buy porn.

You cheapskates are really ruining this economy. First, you decided you couldn't afford to gamble. And now you're giving up on another industry that could be crucial to pumping up our flaccid economy: porn. According to The Economist, revenues in the $6 billion a year adult entertainment industry have dropped by 30%-50%, with some producers claiming that they're down by as much as 80%. Film production has dropped from 5,000 to 6,000 a year to about 3,000 to 4,000.

The real pain is being felt by the actors, and not just by those who specialize in scenes involving leather, latex or gardening tools:

I don't think I've ever seen porn involving gardening tools.
