The big question is the collateral damage to the world financial institutions. Some of the "too big to Fail" U.S. Banks are very very heavy with derivatives.
Are we being played into the hands of the Globalists? Probably.
He was shocked!-—SHOCKED!— to discover that the funds were missing!

The elites that rule us really do believe we are incredibly stupid and then something like this comes along to prove them right. How did they get in charge to begin with — we let them.
Corzine has always been recognized as the crook he was and is. The question is: who got the money, and what country will Corzine retire in to enjoy the money he took? Just another product of the criminal left.
Shazaam!
Spoken like a corrupt Senator with other people’s money.
Has anyone audited Goldman since he left to see if he had a similar management style there?
Not to worry Jon. I’m sure it will turn up in the form of off-shore bank accounts and anonymous donations to the DNC.
Why is this being investigated by the AG Committee?
Did he look under the couch cushions? Under the mattress? I mean the money has to be somewhere. I found a couple of bucks in change after a party in my couch, did he check his?
MF Global and the great Wall St re-hypothecation scandal
"Up until now the assumption has been that the funds missing had been misappropriated by MF Global as it desperately sought to avoid bankruptcy.
Sadly, the truth is likely to be that MF Global took advantage of an asymmetry in brokerage borrowing rules that allow firms to legally use client money to buy assets in their own name - a legal loophole that may mean that MF Global clients never get their money back. "

What a liar! They should have put the handcuffs on him right them and there and frogmarched him to jail.
"I never intended"; "I don't know"; "I don't understand"--then how the heck did you amass a fortune of $ 500 million at Goldman Sachs?
This is a Wall St. insider, former Senator, and forme Governor of a State--and he doesn't know how this happened?
He's a plunderer, straight up. Book him, Danno.
The very instant he said “I DON’T KNOW” they should have put the CUFFS on him and led him away.
I’m even more shocked that anyone with half the sense of Slow Joe would invest their money with him! The guy was, is and will always be a crook with no morals, scruples, ethics, etc.
This is one 1-percenter who needs jail time.
How on earth did this guy get the job? My cat knows more about futures trading than Corzine (and than me, for that matter).
Jon should look in his pockets for the missing money.
