    Leverage Proposal
    Sir-
    It would stand to reason that now we find our goverment officials working to ensure capital
    ratios are properly maintained. The entire financial universe just about collapses under the
    weight of magical CDOs nobody understand and the bankers inability to maintain proper
    capital bases for the risks they took. Here in the currency market, we see organizations fully
    capable of ensuring capital is properly available to support leverage as used in these
    transactions. VVhy do you all feel you have to protect us? Go protect the banks who can
    create rediculous products, sell them to the investing public and walk away. The idea to alter
    existing leverage ratios is another insult to the American people. Please reconsider.
    Sincerely,
    John McCaslin
