-Ah, yes. Lobbying. Another classic go-to. Just read an article today about how several tax preparers spent over $90M lobbying in an effort to undermine the federal government's adoption of a government-run system that would allow taxpayers to file ...

-No, but this is a classic, go-to tactic and the same thing that they did with offshore brokers. Since they could not stop some offshore brokers from refusing to kneel and giving them the finger, they went after all of the payment processors and ...

-The problem is that this is the same way trading/b-bookers and casinos operate. Without losers paying the winners, there would be no business. In all cases, the person is having to work for their money; there are no guarantees for profit and it's ...

-I guess the question is... if given the chance, who here would trade with MFF again? Maybe more data needed?

Some of the emails between Josh and IsRiskAnalytics are interesting. It shows that Josh wasn't trying to kill trader accounts, but was just trying to implement realistic conditions.

-Thanks. I found it after he gave me @TraderNOK.

Prop Firm Hub

-Thanks. I spent about 10 minutes looking before I quit. My social media skills are not impressive.

Prop Firm Hub

-Couldn't find anything by that name.

Prop Firm Hub

-That sounds accurate.

It's an interesting thought, but I'm not sure how that would allow traders to earn after losing their accounts? If the CFTC document wasn't cherry-picked excerpts of the worst conversations, then we might have some better idea, but based on the ...

-Josh was always looking to set up physical trading desks, so maybe they had some plan for that. Who knows...

Prop Firm Hub

-Maybe the plans were already in the works.

Prop Firm Hub

-The same type of people that believe everything that the media tells them, no questions asked.

Prop Firm Hub

-This is how trading works. Losers pay the winners.

Props have their place, and can serve as a useful tool, especially for those that are trying to accumulate capital or fund their personal accounts. I think that it is relative, depending on one's goals and circumstances, but I personally give ...

-Personal accounts/investments should be a priority. Props can serve as a great tool when used properly.

Prop Firm Hub

Sure. Sure. There are agendas. We have many problems here. I always tell people that no matter where you live, there will be pros and cons; no place is perfect.

-It is kind of insane when you think about it. We already have groups that enforce the law. If you steal from people, for example, you get into trouble, and rightfully so. But with regulation, the law can be anything that they decide, no matter how ...

I suspect that it may be easy for some to read this thread and simply believe that many here hate the US government and are against regulation in all forms. I do not necessarily agree with this. But we do recognize that there are things in this ...

-I think that some people do not realize that compliance is not just about following the rules, it comes at a very heavy and costly burden. Not only that, but not everyone agrees with all of the rules because they are unnecessary and should not even ...
