Congressional Commodity Market Manipulation Rule Is a Monument to Cluelessness

craig...I'm all for a good spec debate, but your arguments always come across as being driven by some sort of dogmatic belief. its curious because its not the noblest of endevors. I mean, why bother speaking so passionately (dropping regular ad hominems) against paper impacts on commodity markets, when if you end up being wrong, it would mean widespread devastation, not just your academic stance, but also on billions of actual human beings. A person would need some hard cash to take that sort of risk (or be completely insane).

according to your bio, you have "consulted widely" yet your experience appears to go no further than academia...leading to my question: are you in any way shape or form given remuneration by exchanges and/or parties that benefit from your seemingly one-sided views?

after all, you're no thought-leader...but maybe you can make a buck acting like one? What say you?
