dismayed citizen's response to recent proposals
Amending leverage in the futures markets would have disastrous consequences at this premature stage
of economic recovery. What will this do to the general liquidity? What will happen when investors
choose to take their monies overseas instead? I am a democratic voter but I believe that this is
government over-regulation at its very worst. Though I know that the overwhelming public outcry and
expert decries won't be heeded by this runaway locomotive, I can only hope that the Republican
constituents in Congress will block this distasteful measure will all their might. Furthermore, all private
speculators (however small) in the futures market such as myself would be adversely affected. Why
should we also be punished for what a few bad apples and fat cats did? I still believe in a America where
knowledge and hard work can get you somewhere. Don't try to take that away from us.
