I'm a retail investor, I find it disturbing that the NSCC who's only job is to provide a fair and equal market, would humor the idea of passing this rule. Not only has this rule been turned down twice already, but it's sole purpose appears to be to provide protection to illegal market manipulators.
For reasons that should be obvious, the negligence of the NSCC to provide clear and transparent ruling has resulted in not just the loss of trust of the every day citizen, it has also allowed illegal market manipulation to go on at the expense of the average citizen and our economy.
We, the retail investors, are holding you accountable. Your salaries come from the people. You work for the people. And now you must answer to the people. This blatant attempt to provide a safety net for illegal market manipulators will not be overseen. For once, do the right thing, and stand with the people making up your economy.

Sincerely,
An average Joe who's paying your salary
