The Jackson clan have been doing that since he was alive as well. Not just in death, but in life as well. They were always sucking at the tit of his popularity ever since he was the star of the family. Without him, they would have been trailer trash since day 1. They would have been no Thriller, Off The Wall, or Michael Jackson. Without him, they would have disappeared and never be seen again. Michael Jackson was the breadwinner...all of the rest of family members(save maybe for Janet) were just talentless hacks that never did a big album in more than a decade or so. The mother was no better. The father was a scum of the low kind.
