Increasing sex trade is what happens in a 3rd world country... with a 3rd world economy...

I guess they'll start using older and out of shape strippers. Better yet: more amateur nights.

If this country were smart and mature, it would tax and regulate prostitution and drugs, mainly marijuana.

It would lead to a far more prosperous and happy populace, much like The Netherlands.

As long as social policy in this country keeps getting dictated by guys who wear white collars rather than economists with degrees, the American economy will always be one step behind everyone else.

Well it used to be that the busts were booming...and now the boom is busting.

You really have to admit that spending hundreds in a VIP room was pretty much a discretionary purchase. Moreover in trimmed expenses elsewise it is harder to bury the cost in an expense account or a home budget.

1st 100 days - There are 2.9 million more people unemployed in May than there were

unemployed in January. The unemployment rate went from 7.6% to 9.4%.
Since May 2008, we have lost 5.5 million jobs. The biggest losers were:
Manufacturing 1.5 million lost
Finance & Prof Serv 1.5 million lost
Construction 1.1 million lost
Retail & Leisure 1.3 million lost

Having said that, unless we rethink the way we use our wealth, this world is doomed.

al-Waleed bin Talal, however he came by his wealth is in a position to make a difference.

Instead he chooses conspicuous self-consumption.

I'll need to study the matter further. Closer investigation.

"Interest is flagging, so our strippers are trimming their offerings." Funny.

Why do you provide a link to a story that requires a fee? I am not paying Rupert Murdoch a dime for anything!

Bail out strippers please we need them for these troubling times. But I would like taxpayers to have the say on how and where they strip.
