The US Stock Market claims to be fair and transparent however they are anything but. As an international investor in US Securities I am sickened and appalled by the amount of corruption in plain sight each and every day - Securities swaps - Prime Brokers loaning out IRAs and 401k to Hedgefunds to Short stocks, driving down the value of peoples retirement funds just to line their own pockets, everyone involved should hang their heads in shame The fines given to these institutions are so minimal that their crimes quite literally pay for themselves - how about prison sentences as a deterrent? If for example an average person were counterfeiting US Dollars Im sure justice would be swift and unbiased but a large financial institution that counterfeits US Securities in the form of illegal Naked Shorting gets a slap on the wrist for being a naughty boy? Wheres the justice in this? The state of the fraud and criminal activities in the US Stock and Financial markets would make a corrupt 3rd World Dictator blush with embarrassment. USA - you should be ashamed of your Fair and Transparent Markets.

I am warmed though to keep reading that Gary Gensler is making a stand against literal decades of corruption and abuse of tax payers money.

I stand behind Mr Gensler and his ideas for reform and transparency in the markets. Too long have these financial terrorists hidden in plain sight.
