We, like most non-wealthy American, feel the rise in food and oil prices quite strongly. Such increases as we have seen and are seeing making it even harder for us to save for our retirements.
We URGE you to END excessive gambling in commodities markets like food and oil.
With so many families like ours struggling, and unemployment still hight, we cannot allow speculators to unduly affect such basic items as food and gas prices. These are not luxuries that we can easily do without!
Please put in place effective position limits rules, and do not allow them to be undermined by exemptions or exceptions, or allow Wall Street gamblers to escape them.
Thank you for your consideration.
