So his debt cause 7 more banks to fail this week? I call that bull****! YOu kow it and your point is not worthy of the server space it's taking up.

Point 1...http://www.dailyfinance.com/2009/06/...illion-in-unp/

I'm not sure about you but most people carry a debt for most of their working life. So before you blame one man for causing the US economy to go to hell look at the person next to you.

Point 2 What causing the banks to close! Lending more than they can cover, or making risky loans can lead to shaky foundations. Now do you think 52 banks close behind his debt?

Start with America greed of having more and paying for it over time.
Start with America greed of not saving
Start with America greed of buying items they cannot afford ie house

Really..next time come correct or dont come at all.


PS.....the so call war in Iraq may have something to do with the bank closing also...just wanted to share that with you

I'm not saying that Jackon's debt is causing the banking problems I'm using it as an example of the domino effect were seeing across the industry by tons of cases like this that are contributing to the economic problems we have as a whole. Yes we all have debt I live in a responsible household that pays it off and doesn't have to worry about being part of the problem.

To say that I'm wasting server space when I read everyday banter about subjects totally unrelated to the hobby of fish keeping and choose to ignor it because I see no sense in it then be attacked by an administrator who partakes in the banter that I might not agree with because my opinon is not agreed to is the bull**** part of this conversation.

Dont let the title get you. This is me as an human having an debate with another human. You posted something that was totally unneeded.


And I never attacked you....so stop trying to play the victim role.

7 more banks failed this week making it 50+ ytd.

Those banks failed because they foolishly took the advice of Barney Frank and the Clinton Administration.

They have nothing to do with Michael Jackson.

not according to the polls lol...bush did this. (please note, the previous statement laden with sarcasm)

regardless, bernie maddolf made more of a splash than jackson economically speaking. Enron, and worldcom, stanford, the list continues. regardless, listen to his dad! he be seizing dis, and sellin dat, cuz his son be rich see?. he really sickens me some times. and they wonder why MJ seemed a little off. all of the peeps calling him a shameless self promoter are being generous.

i just think its sad that he had insomnia so bad he felt he needed to take that stuff. sleep deprivation can royally screw you up man. been there done that. i'm just hoping this will come out as one big accident on MJ's part and it wasn't on purpose. like Ledger ya kno?

People have VERY short memories. That and at the time, it DID seem like a good idea. However some people are just infallible no matter what the outcome of their legacy proves to be - much like MJ.

How's that for a segue? I watched the 20/20 special on Michael last night. Apparently he had started getting plastic surgery in the late 70's and not the late 80's as I had just assumed.

Listening to his falsetto voice when doing interviews I think he had something deeper going on than just wanting to change his appearance. Either way, the man made great music in the 70's and 80's. His work in the 90's doesn't do much for me, except that music video with his sister. I thought that was pretty cool.

[cantdoitkid]

I feel really horrible for his kids...

[Darbex]

Did you know that MJ held the world record for most money donated to charities?

Question because he gave the most, does that make what he did to kids ok? And anyone that says its BS or that we dont have proof his fooling yourselves. I am not a psycologist but I can tell you that there is no way that someone admittedly sleeps with kids in his bed and never progresses that same desire or thought into molestation. And to pay the family of one of the accussers tens of millions of dollars when you did nothing wrong is crazy and one of the reasons why his name is trashed.

Even if he did not molest the kids, IMO, it was still inappropriate for them to be in bed with him.

[djmatthewblack]

His bed might have been bigger than your whole house.

[Nickintex]

His bed might have been bigger than your whole house.

Being that I live in an apartment, I believe it.

[geoff_tropheus]

If he really molested that first kid, why do you think parents of all the other kids kept for years after allowing them to stay with him? Were they all bad parents who ignored the signs? Or were they very good parents who saw first hand, none of it to be true?

His family and ex-wives also say he was innocent.

He was found innocent in a court of law.

The people who really knew him, say he was innoncent of the charges.
