Axial, The best news I've heard in years. If they are successful, a lot of money that now flows into the pockets of parasites would flow into our economy.

You guys are being had. Sorry, but it's true. Those changes (of both the in-effect and proposed variety) are being pushed by old school, name brand brokers, who are having their lunch eaten by more modern, more nimble competitors. When was the last time the likes of Goldman Sachs pushed for any change that benefited normal people? Yes indeed, behind the scenes it is exactly the likes of Goldman Sachs that is pushing for these types of changes. This isn't about saving the proverbial little guy - the little guy doesn't carry enough protein to feed these kinds of sharks - it's about restoring old-school brokers to their rightful place at the top of the chomping pyramid.
