    I applaud the introduction on limits to speculation on food prices. The fact that the US is taking a lead will improve its standing in the world and encourage the EU to follow.

    In order to avoid food and energy price bubbles like those which occurred in 2008, the CFTC should implement the proposed speculation limits.

    I also request that the US only give exemptions to businesses that deal in physical commodities (like farmers, gas stations, etc.). Do not give any exemptions to banks, hedge funds or other financial players
