looks like corzine will escape any criminal charges in the collapse of MF Global as his wink and nod methods have left little hard evidence to present in a criminal case.

i've heard, without independent verification, that under clinton around 1,000 prosecutions of wall street characters were undertaken, under bush it was around 1,300, under obama zero. maybe one of you googlers can check that out

Pitiful. People who wreck cars are, as a minimum, ticketed and fined for reckless operation and careless destruction of property. But when a clown like Corzine wrecks a bank and destroys peoples savings, he isn't even given a slap on the wrist. Corzine was the driver, and what happened while he was driving was against the law. He is guilty of careless operation and destruction of property!

In the 1980s over 1,000 bankers went to jail for lending and mortgage fraud.

This time there were none.

Obama says it "wouldn't do any good" to prosecute them.

No. You are not "wrong". But you do understand that Medicaid fraud and securities fraud are two different issues, don't you? Plus, just wanted to reiterate Madoff was locked up and awaiting trial when the Odumbo administration came on board.

Why Can't Obama Bring Wall Street to Justice?
May 6, 2012 1:38 PM EDT
Despite his populist posturing, the president has failed to pin a single top finance exec on criminal charges since the economic collapse. Are the banks too big to jail—or is Washington’s revolving door at to blame? Peter J. Boyer and Peter Schweizer investigate....

Strikingly, federal prosecutions overall have risen sharply under Obama, increasing dramatically in such areas as civil rights and health-care fraud. But according to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, a data-gathering organization at Syracuse University, financial-fraud prosecutions by the Department of Justice are at 20-year lows.
