I am no expert in finance (though I do have an MBA)
But I totally support the Tobin tax and have done for several years. I
recently saw a one-hour program on CBC Anne Petrie where several experts
including Tobin suppported the feasibility and justice and effectiveness of
the Tobin Tax.
It is the responsibility of the People to make these decisions (currently
vested in so-called Representatives), not the Experts, be they called Tobin
or Soros, who have individually got vested interests.
All that is currently proposed is a debate in Parliament.

What is missing is not the ingenuity, but the WILL of the legislatures,
particularly in the US, Canada, and the rest of the G 7
