Proposed Speculative Position Limits on Energy

Dear Mr. Stawick:
This is not just another "form letter". I feel strongly about oil
speculation and need your support on the CFTC's Proposed Federal
Speculative Position Limits. You know it will limit speculation on major
energy commodities, so I won't bore you with all the details. Just know
that "We the People" need it, the economy needs, and adopt the limits
without delay.
I am an unemployed American and we unemployed Americans need all the help
and support a strong economy will give us. We don't need the government
"creating" phantom jobs. We need to shore up the economy which will then
lead to the creation of real jobs and get us back on track.
Our tax dollars were used to bail out large Wall Street firms when they
were on the brink of bankruptcy. It is these same institutions that
pushed the price of gasoline well past $4 per gallon in 2008 by gambling
on oil and continue to profit at every American's expense.
I encourage the CFTC to adopt the Proposed Federal Speculative Position
Limits before volatile fuel prices further harm the country's already
weakened economy.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Mullins
