MF Global chief missing $1.2B is financial adviser to EPA

Bradley Abelow, MF Global president and COO, is sworn in Dec. 13, 2011, on Capitol Hill prior to testifying before the Senate Agriculture Committee.

Quote
During two days of recent congressional hearings into how as much as $1.2 billion disappeared from MF Global customer accounts, the chief operating officer of the imploding investment firm responded again and again that he did not know.

Yet as the House and Senate interrogated Bradley I. Abelow and other top executives at MF Global Holdings Ltd., lawmakers did not mention Mr. Abelow’s role as a financial adviser for the Environmental Protection Agency, which as of Tuesday listed him as the chairman of its financial advisory board.


Again, ask the DUmmies WHY we should re-elect this criminal for president or trust anyone in this administration. Where are the 99%'s with their protesting now? These are the people they shouldbe protesting.

I'm surprised EPA even has a financial advisory board, since they don't give a shit about the financial damage they wreak in their enforcement actions, they can and do issue fines until they meet their budget goals, and their evaluations of business net worth for assessing fines is completely random and capricious.
