Your Stimulus Tax Dollars are Stimulating More than the Economy
WARNING: The following post is for Adults only and will probably turn your stomach.
I've never been a fan of using federal dollars to fund art. In my opinion, if art is good, it will be commercially successful without government funding. If it isn't, it shouldn't be funded.
The National Endowment for the Arts received $80 million of the government's trillion dollar stimulus package. That money has been used for things such as the weekly pervert revue at the "Frameline" film house. Every week, this "art-oriented" theater shows a film that most of us would find not simply disturbing, but downright disgusting. Tax dollars also fund the weekly production "Perverts Put Out" at San Francisco's CounterPULSE, who invites guests to join in the "explicit, twisted fun." CounterPULSE received government funds in the "dance" category.
These aren't isolated incidents, either. While there are no statistics, it seems that much of the money going to "art and culture" (not all of which goes through the National Endowment for the Arts, and accounts for much more than the $80 million that the NEA received from the Generational Theft Act) goes to "projects" and "artistic endeavors" that the average American would find objectionable.
The Symmetry Project is a dance that depicts the "sharing of a central axis: spine, mouth and genitals" and celebrates their interconnectedness.
Liberals would jump and scream if a single tax dollar were to fund a church service or a prayer meeting. But these same people have no problem at all using dollars meant to stimulate the economy to stimulate the senses of the perverted citizens of San Francisco.

What a screwed up world we live in. Morals are seemingly gone and the reprobates rule.

That has always, always been the issue with liberals. They don't understand that if something is truly worth the money, private investors will pick up the tab. The same thing goes for embryonic stem cell research. It needs federal funding because investors know it would be a failed investment.
Thanks for doing the research. I am going to spread this like a virus on my blog as well. Americans need to discover these truths. Keep fighting.
I agree - and I disagree.
I feel like I'm in a homosexual orgy every time I hear of another Obama Program designed to ram it to me without so much as a kiss and a warm towel. So that extent - why not film it at government expense and chalk it up to stimulating the porn industry? I mean, there's a certain symbiosis there.
On the other hand, why have a stimulus package at all -- designed to fund Acorn, Gay Nazis for Christ and every other bizarre and unnatural liberal program in the country? Couldn't we have NOT BORROWED $800 billion in the first place? While turtle tunnels, new toilet seats in National Parks and gay orgy theaters may be "legitimate uses" of tax money, many of we taxpayers would disagree.
Then again, we're conservatives and I'm sure we're missing the "big picture" the liberals are painting for us.
