Banks denying accounts and loans to adult industry workers

http://j.mp/10MmPVL  (Business Insider)

     The vice president "was evasive in his response to plaintiff's
     application status requests and finally informed plaintiff during a
     telephone conversation that plaintiff's loan application was refused
     due to 'moral reasons,' because of JPMorgan's disapproval of
     plaintiff's former source of income and occupation as an owner of a
     television production company that produced television programs that
     dealt with the subject of human sexuality," the complaint reads.

Oh you know, the banks don't want to be involved in anything they feel
is unethical.  After all, they have their reputations for cheating
people out of hundreds of billions of dollars at stake!
