Did Obama promise Corzine a bailout until the funds were discovered to be missing?

[ClearCase_guy]

Probably funding Occupy Wall Street.

We are still paying for an apathetic financial regulatory system. Get James Stone, former CFTC Chairman, to form a special investigation committee, to map out the mandatory changes that must be made.

What a complete and utter jackass the author is. The problem is gov't corruption and the author's solution is more gov't.

$630 milllion of customers money missing and a socialist/progressive/totalitarian/criminal/looting/’rat politician involved. Socialists live off OPM. (Perhaps they’re setting a precedent...the “new normal”...watch your 401ks) Is this even news?

DEFUND socialists and their collectives, foreign and domestic.

In separate news, Barack Obama raised $630 million in a campaign fundraiser last night...

[Jim Noble]

If Corzine doesn't find the $630 million tout de suite he's going to prison.

[circlecity]

"Where oh where did Corzine’s $630 million go to?"

Other reports from the financial media put the number closer to $1.5 billion.

[YHAOS]

"The search and rescue teams are all about the mighty financial institutions madly trying to find $630 million of customers money that stupidly and unethically and perhaps illegally was commingled with MF Global’s own capital in order for the firm to stay in business and avoid that deadly credit rating reduction that was one of a number of kisses of death."

"Stupidly"?! "Perhaps illegally"?

[Del Rapier]

That is a hell of a lot of customers losing just about everything,still investing is never really a safe thing to do.Otherwise I wouldn’t be surprised if Corzine didn’t live to be much older then he is now.

[muir_redwoods]

Gosh! I sure hope Mr. Corzine can clear up this little misunderstanding. I would absolutely hate for him to have any legal problems; that would be awful.

[djf]

I’ll bet 630 million bucks that NONE of the suits responsible will spend a single day in the slammer.

If I lose the bet, you are SOL cause I don’t have 630 million.
And I’m not a bank or somebody that cavorts with the Fed Reserve/SEC/Lexus crowd, so I can’t get a “bailout” from the gov!

[cpa4you]

What amuses me is the surprise at what Corzine is reported to have done! After his dis-honor as a senator and Governor, we’re surpriseed by his character flaws?

Yes, apparently Gerald Celente was one of the thousands that were hammered by Corzine’s incompetence. It is interesting to see how many of these supposedly savvy financiers are taking their companies into bankruptcy. If ever there was an example of why it is important to diversify your assets, this is it.

[TruthConquers]

I read an article that JPMorgan has asked to be superior to the clients in the bankruptcy.

That means JPMorgan wants the money that is left BEFORE the clients will see a dime. It is scandalous. JPM filed a brief at court to request this, and there has been a brief filled to the court not to do so.

So, we will see if the courts will up hold the clients right to their own money before JPM.

Corzine was a former head of Goldman Sachs ... what else does any investor need to know ... the guy was the head of one of the largest criminal enterprises in the world. Investing money with Corzine is similar to dropping your virgin teenage daughter off at Occupy New York!!!!
