    From Above Article:

    "Citigroup Inc. is fighting in court to enforce an earlier agreement that would allow it to buy Wachovia's banking operations for $2.1 billion, or $1 per share."

    So let me get this straight, Citicorp, who we've already bailed out is using funds in a lawsuit to get a hold of Wachovia, which has even more bad debts in it - whereas Wells Fargo is doing the whole thing privately?

    As a partial now-owner of Citicorp I'd like to tell them to stop it - if they have enough money for a lawsuit to put more debt onto their already debt addled balance sheet then maybe they don't need anymore money from the US Taxpayer...

    • citicorp isn't one of the banks in trouble. So I'm sorry TBO, you aren't a part owner.tommyo
    • Well either way I hate citicorp. If they buy wachovia I close my account....TheBlueOne
    • ...and citicorp better not get a dime of that $700 billion then...TheBlueOne
    • Well you're in luck because I hear Wells bought it for $7 a share and citi is mad.tommyo
    • No one should get a dime of that 700b as far as I'm concerned.tommyo
    • Taxpayers are getting fucked here one way or another.
