It was Maryland. And yes, it failed....
Unfortunately, it won't be presented that way- they'll say less "speculative" volume is good, and if the FTT was in place, the massive selling by...
Why are we wasting time and energy arguing here? We should all be on the same page. Basically, if a FTT were to happen, there are two basic ways...
