_Share the View_ -- _Bloomberg View _

A Quick Look at Bloomberg News's Opinion Section for April 23,  2012

WILLIAM COHAN: "For sheer speed and chutzpah, the actions of MF
Global's management may stand alone." Not only is $1.2 billion still missing
from customer accounts, but bondholders say they were duped into
investing $650 million. Will anyone on Wall Street ever be held accountable?

NOAH FELDMAN:  Banning candidates from running for president is not exactly
good democratic form. Yet in throwing leading candidates off the ballot,
Egypt's Supreme Presidential Electoral Commission may have done democracy a
favor in the long run. "A weak president is not necessarily a bad thing for
a new democracy coming out of 60 years of dictatorship." [Link]

AL HUNT: Who will the 'deciders' be in the 2012 presidential election?
Here's a hint: Focus on those "voting blocs in which the premium is passion
not preference." [Link]

PAUL FOURIER: Social democracy needs to reassert its place in the EU.
Without a renewed and vigorous commitment, Europe's governments "risk
tipping their countries into new crises and reinforcing the nationalism and
xenophobia that's already becoming all too evident." [Link]

NORM MATLOFF: Good news for software engineers: You’re more likely than
liberal arts majors to get a job offer with excellent pay right out of
college. Bad news: "You'll likely end up working for one of those lowly
humanities majors. . . . Many programmers find that their employability
starts to decline around age 35." [Link]

THE EDITORS: Nice try, Mitt. Having adopted essentially the same position on
Afghanistan as President Obama, Mitt Romney nevertheless acts like he's got
a better idea all the while criticizing the president for the mess we're in.
Just answer the question, Mitt: Are we in Afghanistan until the "mission is
complete?" Or do we pull out by 2014? [Link]
