Hello,

I am concerned with how the market structure currently is. It seems like the punishment for financial crimes isnt severe enough to stop them from happening. I feel this makes the markets unfair and deeply clouded so real information is difficult to find and decode. What I am looking for is a true fair and transparent market that works for the people, not just the people pulling the strings. Please SEC, power should be in the people's hands and regulatory agencies should fight to protect the average person in this country and in this stock market.

Thank you for your time and attention. I hope you are able to make real change and put an end to the criminal activity found in the markets.
