    I know you guys may feel some of your current changes regarding RIN 3038-AC61may be to help our countries
    financial position but Please consider the following.
    Should the 10 to 1 leverage rule proposed by the CFTC be adopted:
    Funded accounts currently in the U.S. system can be expected to go offshore.
    Forex fraud may worsen, not improve. Unregulated dealers from around the world will thrive, while operating
    without requirements for capital adequacy, risk management models, marketing ethics, dealing practices or
    even returning of customers funds.
    The United States may cost itself millions of dollars in trade revenue.
    Thousands of white collar jobs that require an advanced education and range from software developers to
    accountants to foreign exchange dealers may be eliminated, or move out of the United States.
