"...there comes a point however when government legislation crosses the
line between regulation of a profession and the regulation of free speech.
The CFTC crossed that line: it has created with its regulation "an
impermissible prior restraint upon the exercise of free speech and runs
afoul of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution." [As for
the newsletter publishers] " their calling is the selling of ideas, not the
trading of commodity futures."
Judge Urbina commenting on the CFTC case ( 97-1711)
