OK, by now you know that the Michael Jackson memorial was ridiculously costly to the City of Los Angeles. Some $3.9 million for security and "support." What they were thinking?! The citizens of LA should DEMAND that these costs be reimbursed by Michael Jackson's promoters and inheritants.
It's interesting to look at the details. For example, part of the cost was nearly $49,000 in box lunches for the LA Police that day. They bought 3500 fancy box lunches that could have been purchased cheaper at Subway! Adding to the outrage -- the lunches were ordered from a business 80 miles away from the Staples Center! Come to think of it, whatever happened to people bringing their own lunch when they're on the job?
The outrage continues. At every level of government.
