    I am writing to voice opposition to the proposed regulations reducing leverage to 10 to 1. Not only would this
    make it impossible for a trader to make a living with such oppressive reductions in leverage, it is not necessary.
    The capital being risked is the trader's own capital, there are measures in place to contain risk, and I don't need
    another part of the government deciding they need to protect me from myself. This is a bad proposal that needs to
    go away.
