-aoxomoxoa- While I disagree with the implementation, and frankly think society would be better if children were not allowed on the internet AT ALL, this was a bipartisan vote, so let's quit pretending like this is a Republican problem.
Vote Tally Democrat Republican
Yea 133 54 79
Nay 1 1
Only one single Democrat or Republican voted against it and every single other representative from either side that voted in fact voted in favor of ot. And as far as who paid to lobby for this... Well, we know who has the money and it's not the Republicans. Lobbyists and donors might have targeted 2 out of 3 sponsors to be Republicans, but this passed overwhelmingly with nary opposition. For that matter, Republicans don't control the major card companies that have been trying to choke out the porn industry; that's the Leftists.
I think it's bullshit, but if you aren't going to hold everyone responsible for it, then you might as well be sponsoring the bill yourself. Solutions don't come from ignoring half the cause.
