    Dear Mr, Stawick
    It was brought to nay attention by our propane provider that the CFTC has proposed
    Federal Speculative position limits on energy. I urge you to please pass this, I am a small
    poultry grower in Arkansas and over the past five years I have seen prices go from $,50 to
    $1,85 a gallon Ibr contracted prices, Ttlis is far less than normal households pay. People
    and tanners too have been cut, Our pay has been cut over 8%, but our expenses stay the
    same. Washington can bail out all these big businesses and expect us, the little people to
    pay for it, Then you have speculators on wall street running up the prices ol!energy and
    we are
    expected to
    pay for that so
    they
    can make more
    money,
    We ~he
    people
    of the
    United States can't afford to pay anymore,
    There are old people that
    have to decide if they
    want to s~ay
    warm in the
    winter or buy their meds, I
    am
    like all the other Americans, I'm
    tired ofhavlng to pay more for gas and propane because some guy on Wall Street buys up
    a bunch and runs the prices up, So 1 again 1. ask that you pass this bill to help all
    Americaaso
