U.S. Will Pay $2.6 Million to Train Chinese Prostitutes to Drink Responsibly on the Job

Thinking about this article more got me thinking as I recall not that long ago larry flint from hustler was asking congress for billions in a government bail out saying the porn industry was suffering just as much as the rest of the economy.

How is it that the money can go to overseas hookers and not people that work for the porn industry right here in america?

From that same website there was this little gem of information.
Not only do I resent our tax dollars being spent like this, it will take
them 2 years to complete this study. Couldn't they have saved some time
and money and held this "study" in any large US city?
Drinking and sex have always gone "hand in hand" no matter the gender
or so called lifestyle. What a waste of money and time. IMO

Feds Will Spend $400,000 to Study Drinking and Sex Habits of Homosexuals in Argentina

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is funding a study that seeks to discover a link between drinking and having sex among homosexuals in Argentina. The study will send researchers to six bars in Buenos Aires to interview both patrons and proprietors in an effort to discover what it is about those bars that may encourage the risky behavior. The study began on Sept. 30, 2008, and runs through Aug. 31, 2010. It already has cost taxpayers $198,776. By the time the project ends, it will have cost $403,902, according to NIH.
