    It is time to eradicate speculation on commodities, including oil and food products. The public is becoming more aware of practices that have long benefited those "in the know," on Wall Street and with money to spare. It is time the U.S. government, commissions, agencies, and Congress make ethical and "the right" decisions for the beneift of the public, not to line pockets of a few.

    Stop speculative practices on commodities, as it leads to inflated gas and food prices for John Q. Public and around the globe. Let's restore ethical decision-making in government.
