Mr. Secretary,
I am writing in support of restrictions on oil futures trading. Speculation, especially by those who have no
means to actually store oil was a contributing factor to the economic meltdown here in the US and abroad. Oil is
much too vital a commodity to allow rampant speculation to continue. The ripple effect has devastating
consequences on millions. It is also a national security issue. Common sense instead of greed should rule the day
on this issue.
