 I am commenting in support of this rule, in support of transaction by transaction reporting, and in support of the requirement to report every 15 minutes. I am commenting in defense of hard working families and business that have been victimized for far too long by predatory trading firms whos insatiable greed and propensity for manipulative tactics have led to loss in profits, capital formation, jobs, homes and even lives.

This rule will advance transparency in our markets, which is never a bad thing. After all the damage that has been done to hard working, tax paying families by Wall St institutions and short sellers, the least your agency can do is shed light on the trading practices that offer no tangible value to everyday investors, but instead serve to extract value at our expense. How are we to make informed investment decisions if we cant see what is being lent, or to whom, or how often? Please do your jobs and protect American families and tax payers by passing this rule.
