Amazing how we add positive aspects to the news that works on profits and the real story is never shown.

Keep in mind SQUIRE the news works on the ability to read the story not the true facts. I am not a millionaire or far from a billionaire but it is amazing how we celebrate the massive news stream who earns profits from demise and you doubt the individual.

Sad a life is a life the monetary value is all relative to what one thinks is their worth. I am no where near billionaire or millionaire status but in the end articles like these are what drives humans to rethink their existence. Losing a few billions to us is ridiculous but did you ever think the political pressure of the press and the contant criticism may have taken him to the brink of his life. We really need to look at what makes a human and not their monetary value. Your value of human life goes to show how shallow you really are.

Yeah, but at least they can spell ‘lazy’ in most cases.

i find most of the posts disturbing. from the little i gathered from time and telegraph, Adolf Merckle did not commit suicide because he lost a few billions. and he was not greedy either. accounts of the life he lived show someone who was more humble than most of us. the reason for his suicide is a mystery and to imply that he was greedy and other nasty things is just plain insentitive.

“Capitalists are ‘human faces” squeezing the working family’s neck to make a profit.” I guess he didn’t like how it felt to get punked. That’s what happens to control freaks. Too bad we don’t have enough trains in the world to grind through the rest of the unethical bastards. May those unforgiven who caused this global crisis burn in hell and their progeny lose it all within 3 generations.

“…I do not know this guy but I am sure your article took him one step closer to his own demise.”

From the looks of it Madoff might well Ken Lay on us in a few months. Though I predict a brain tumor made him do those things. Only reasonable explanation, his business plan was weirder than AOL’s has been since 2000. OK, as weird.

Meanwhile, no-shame ahole Madoff is all smiles, sending friends and relatives on vacation expensive jewelry from his collection.

Merckle looks like an ok person by comparison.

First the US auto CEOS go to beg in Washington DC on a PLANE?

Now the VW guy throws himself under a TRAIN?

I’m starting to think these car thingies are not reliable enough even for basic functionality.

Next the Ford guy is going to use a SHIP for a doorstop.
