    they tend to raise gold and silver margins at the same time....

    And on oil, if the speculators are really to blame for oil and gasoline being so high, then is the current admin so stupid or clueless not to have the CFTC raise those margins 50-100% of what they are now?"

    Stupid and clueless, asked and answered.

    In 1980 the CFTC raised silver margin to 100% of the value of the contract and then to 150 or 200% to crush the Hunts, if memory serves, and also prohibited new long positions, so who could they sell to?
