Put back the rules removed in 2007. Who and Why was this removed? UNBELIEVABLE

My 401k was killed when WFC stock dropped like a bowling ball because of the $@$ short sellers I panicked and sold for a huge lost when it fell from $37 - $14.

Main street families need protection from these horrible vicious wolves. I am serious when I label these short sellers as TERRORISTS.

I now dont trust anyone on Wall Street anymore and feel that the abusive naked short sellers are a very dangerous enemy that DESTROYS families retirement funds for their greedy profit.

There is now a huge gaping divide in this country that wasnt there before. SHAME

Please re-instate a strong serious up-tick rule.
