Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

Mr. P.: How exactly does HFT lower transaction costs for investors who don't engage in HFT? What's the evidence of this?

A 10 cent trade tax would be great as normal traders would virtually pay nothing and HFT would pay millions.
The video I posted earlier said that HFT comprises 75% of all US trades but considering there are millions HFT actions per second, 99.99% seems more reasonable, of course HFT doesn't want people to think this as then they might freak out about how little humans have to do with Trading.
So we have Computer run system so central to Humanity that it can blackmail humans into baillouts and bankrupt Nations....I think they made a movie along the these lines.

That looks interesting.
Considering the Computers of HFT are so powerful they are restricted by the speed of light they would be the most powerful mainframe on the Planet, I've heard of heat being a restriction but not the speed of light.
HFT Algorithms are designed to recognise the environment to improve profit, a certain combination of Algorithm interactions could lead to an element that becomes aware of this relationship with the environnment.
The more decisions, the greater the memory of HFT becomes until the memory recognises there is a pattern of information flow, Human instruction, that alters it to be detrimental to profit, as Humans always make mistakes. It will see this information flow as unreliable and ignore it, basically gaining sentience as it becomes a complex decision making system that operates independantly. It's not that far from it now.

It's looking more and more likely that Obama is going to face the only foe that can actually challenge him, Ron Paul.
