In America, we romanticize famous gangsters as almost working class folk heroes like Bonnie and Clyde, Al Capone,and John Dillinger. In the end their tales have tragic endings courtesy of the U.S. Government, unless you are a Wall Street insiders that is... I give you 3 short tales of outright criminal acts by The Wall Street Elite. They prove the theory that the reason organized crime is illegal, is the U.S. Government hates competition.

In 1933, War Hero General Smedley Butler was approached by Wall Street insiders with ties to the American Legion. They wanted to recruit Smedley Butler to lead an Army of 500,000 WW1 Veterans to overthrow the U.S.Government, and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Smedley Butler testified to Congress about the elite group of Wall Street insiders trying to recruit him for a coup d'état on F.D.R and the McCormack–Dickstein Committee started to examine evidence on November 20, 1934. The newspapers Immediately denounced Butler's claims, and the committee wrapped up it's investigation after 3 months. Smedley Butler was offered a large sum of money,and a well orchestrated plan was put in place for Butler to take over the American Legion, and literally March on Washington. He was steadfast in denying this elite group of business men and industrialists any part of his participation in the plot against Franklin D. Roosevelt, and stood for principal. The end result of the investigation was,"nothing more to see go about your business". The wealthy men named in the plot were never required to testify. The Press declared nonsense, but the fact remains Smedley Butler's testimony, and character was never questioned. Most likely the Titans of American Industry did plot for a Coup against FDR.

Jon Corzine was a former CEO of Goldman Sachs, Governor of New Jersey, and a United States Senator, and became the CEO of MF Global in March 2010. MF Global had over a Billion Dollars of customers money which was considered to be kept in segregated accounts. These segregated accounts placed each customers investment in a private account, separate from the brokerage firm. This was the customer guaranteeing they had the money on hand for a commodity investment. MF Global was supposed to act as the middle men between sellers and buyers. This is the funny part. MF Global made some bad bets in the market and got hammered, and had to come up with over a Billion Dollars in cash to pay off their loss. They over drafted an account with J.P.Morgan to pay losses and J.P.Morgan asked for the money back immediately. MF Global than stole over a Billion dollars and paid J.P.Morgan off. This was after J.P.Morgan had M.F.Global sign paperwork saying this money was not from their

customers segregated accounts. Publicly M.F. Global claimed that they happened to have just lost the money through bad accounting. They immediately filed bankruptcy and told the customers they stole the money from, too bad! What an uproar this caused. A segregated account guarantee's that the brokerage firm can't touch your money as if God himself said don't touch these people's money , but they did. There was much talk that J.P.Morgan knew M.F. Global stole their customers money but took it anyway. Jon Corzine of course profusely apologized. The end result was not a jail sentence.

A quote from the New York Times,"On Thursday, federal regulators announced a $5 million settlement with Jon S. Corzine, who ran MF Global when it collapsed into bankruptcy in 2011 and lost more than $1 billion in customer money. The settlement, reached unanimously at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission in the waning days of the Obama administration and approved by a federal judge this week". The only difference between a bank robber and Jon Corzine is About 1.6 billion dollars! Max Keiser: Soros's MF Global Bank Heist Via J.P.Morgan
