I wish to express my strong opposition to this proposed rule change that would allow public and federal lands to be placed on the NYSE and thereby, sold to any entity without regard to their intention or affiliation. It would allow any nation or organization to gain control of US lands, which would be detrimental to our national security if purchased by nations that are hostile to the U.S. such as Communist China. I do not understand how the SEC can put through such a change without public knowledge or Congressional approval. I urge you to disallow this proposed rule change, and put the interests of the American people above those foreign entities whose purpose would be a damaging to this nation. Thank you for considering my comments and position.
