No, it shouldn't be your last post. I, for one, have found considerable value in your posts.
To those "anti-trading" people: if we take Bill Smith as an example. If Bill manages to earn enough by his trading on the stock exchange to keep himself, and he has no other apparent talents or skills, and therefore finds it difficult to hold a more "ordinary" job, then by earning a living by the only means he finds possible, then he is benefiting society by not being a drain on the welfare system, i.e. his fellow taxpayer.
I just don't see why anyone needs to be so morally outraged by any one who earns or supplements their living by trading in legitimate companies, most of which produce products which in some way or another benefit the society in which we live. The moral high ground can become pretty mushy at times.

Thanks Julia,
You stated it right by saying legitimate companies. A legitimate system to facilitate those legitimate companies.
