MF’n Global?

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.
