Stir Crazy
Following the Jackson trial? Then you may have noticed the side-story about a woman's family sueing him over his visit to hospital with flu symptoms. This sums up the attitudes of many people today - greed gets the better of so many.
Seems like when MJ went to hospital, the hospital moved a woman out of a room to make way and to try and get him away from the glare of publicity while he was treated. It's an unfortunate fact that the woman who was moved died later in the day after two heart attcks - very sad.
But withing just a couple of days, the supposedly "grieving" family had found the time to capitalise on this sad time and, probably with the aid of some rich legal eagles who spotted the opportunity of a lifetime, decided they need to sue MJ to relieve the pain!!! Wake up people. Take a look at yourselves and maybe you'll see how it looks to us ordinary folk. A member of your family has died and no amount of money is going to replace her...you're just taking advantage of someone for your own gain and its WRONG!
If you want to sue anyone, then sue the hospital who made the decision to move the woman. It had nothing to do with MJ and just because he earned a shedload of money does not mean you are entitled to handouts. Its disgusting...pathetic...grrrr...there are no more words to describe this lowlife tactic IMHO. I ought to sue them for pyshological damage caused reading about it!!
S!

Greed, of course, plays a role. And then there is the Tort system in the United States. Unscrupulous lawyers ("ambulance chasers") find clients and persuade them to sue. Most of such cases are taken on contingency basis; the attorneys keep 60% of the money awarded by the court. In some instances the insurance companies negotiate settlement just to avoid the hassle of contesting a law suit.
"ambulance chasers" - lol :)
It is indeed truly sad.
