1. Even as they axe 52,000 jobs elsewhere......

..... Unreal.

2. I used to bank with them becuase I had a free acct via work

but as soon as I switched jobs and that ended, I joined my credit union.

I always hated having to call their customer service line because it always went to a call center in India.

7. Financing Citi's repositioning with taxpayer dollars

"We're investing in systems and processes, and next year we will have another 1,000 (workers)," Citigroup's country business manager Mark Jones was quoted as saying.
--snip--

"There's a whole lot of activity moving in the Philippines as we grow our businesses. Citi is moving more equity in the Philippines. If you look at the business, we're repositioning globally," Jones said.

9. Those bastards!

How dare they hire non-white people in Foreign!

[MattBaggins]

21. They are using my tax money to do it

Firing American workers and hiring cheap labor overseas and sending me the bill.

Nice try to play the "non-white" bullshit though asshat.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

22. 1000 jobs is an incredibly small portion of their workforce.

Really, how much of an impact on their bottom line do you think this is going to have?

[BrklynLiberal]

10. How can this be allowed to be legal They are using OUR tax money to pay salaries

for out-sourced jobs. Isn't that special?????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Vinca]

11. This is not right. I'm seriously pissed off.

Bailing them out with American taxpayer money so they can cut jobs in this country and move them overseas. Unfuckingbelievable.

[TexasObserver]

12. I hope when Obama is in office, no money is spent to help move jobs away.

[bonito]

13. Duh supprised? n/t

[Edweird]

14. And people here supported this bullshit ripoff bailout scam.

:argh:

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. Yeah, 'Thank God It Passed!'

17. Maybe these foreign countries will send care packages to americans

[OhioChick]

18. Bastards...

Using our tax dollars, no less.

[tosh]

19. I don't bank with Citi. Never have, never will.

Sleezeballs.

[KharmaTrain]

20. Yes, The Do Think We're Stupid

Or at least the corporate media is...and they're right. These robber barons saw the other bail outs with little to no oversight...Citi even got a previous piece of the pie...and figgered why not go for more? Whose gonna stop 'em? All they had to do was call Komandant Klink Paulsen and the check was on the way, the rest of us can go hang. If the others didn't have to restructure or even fire the asshat's responsible, Citi figures why should they? We have such a short term memory, whose gonna pay attention? So you're outraged at them today...big deal...tomorrow there'll be another target for ire and Citi's stockholders will take the tax money, the perks and no one will be the wiser.
