L.A. lost $1.4Million performing service for jackson


The memorial service for singer Michael Jackson cost the city of Los Angeles $1.4 million, the mayor's office said. Costs included putting extra police on the streets, trash pickup, sanitation, traffic control and more for the Tuesday event, a spokeswoman said. The city, which is $530 million in debt, set up a Web page seeking donations to help with the expenses. This city has some nerve, they go all out to perform this mind blowing service to honor the king of pop then turn around and cry broke? Did someone put a gun to the mayors head saying he had to do it? CNN said over 1 billion people watched the service. Hotels, motels were sold out with people trying to be in the general area. I look at it like this if you do something from the good of your heart is great. Although if you expect to get paid for the good deed is crap. If the city of LA was okay with offering the services of extra police, trash pickup and traffic control then the city should be okay with eating the debt they created!
