Piggy bankrupt

Piggy bankrupt
Here’s a tale of two worlds -- as far as accountability is concerned. MF Global, the firm that Jon Corzine recklessly steered into bankruptcy, has fired 1,066 employees, many in New York.
Meanwhile, the Securities and Exchange Commission finally got around to disciplining eight employees who failed to stop Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme. The most severe penalty: One guy got a 30-day suspension and a demotion.

That’s the difference between the real world and government.
In the former, failure has serious consequences.
In government, not so much.
