It’s Nice to Have Friends in High Places

New York

MF’n Global?

No criminal charges.

I fail to see how there can be no Federal crimes related to MF’n Global.  Damned near everything is a Federal crime these days, except for illegal immigration.

What I’m about to say sounds too outlandish to be true, and I haven’t been able to find any credible verification.  But I have heard that the number of Wall Street-related prosecutions by the U.S. Attorney’s office in southern New York were in the thousands both under Clinton and Bush 43 each, but zero under Obama.
