<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 1457981, member: 3011&quot;]Hedging has been around for a very long time.&nbsp; So has credit and the use of leverage.&nbsp; You can&#039;t really do away with any of these and maintain a capitalist economy.&nbsp; You&#039;re moving into the realm of telling people what they can and can&#039;t do with their possessions, and history has shown that this doesn&#039;t work well.&nbsp; The way to stop the improper use is to stop bailing out the abusers, but that probably won&#039;t happen either.&nbsp; I believe at one time officers and owners of banks were personally liable for losses.&nbsp; Something like that would tighten up the ship.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
