This isn't the first time recently I've heard "speculators" and "scapegoats" used in conjunction. It seems trendy. However, are there any long term prejudices toward speculators that my lead to more permanent restrictions that may not be limited to just a specific sector? I'm not jumping to a full blown witch hunt, but group think carries a lot of momentum.
