From: Anon APE

Dear SEC, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on SR-OCC-2024-001 34-99393 entitled “Proposed Rule Change by The Options Clearing Corporation Concerning Its Process for Adjusting Certain Parameters in Its Proprietary System for Calculating Margin Requirements During Periods When the Products It Clears and the Markets It Serves Experience High Volatility”. I have several concerns about the OCC rule proposal, HIGHLY OPPOSE THIS PROPOSAL, AND DO NOT SUPPORT IT'S APPROVAL!. I’m concerned about the lack of transparency in our financial system as evidenced by this rule proposal, amongst others. The details of this proposal along with supporting information are significantly redacted which prevents public review making it impossible for the public to meaningfully review and comment on this proposal, and this proposal should be rejected on that basis alone. The purpose of maintaining margin requirement, and the potential margin call that facilitates a standardized liquidation of holders assets - is one of the few, if only legally required and enforceable attributes of self-regulating entities that has ANY level of accountability that can not be swayed by political or financial influences within enforcement, regulatory, or policy bodies. Margin requirements and margin calls have been and continue to be implemented on private investors, retail investors, and other high risk investor groups. This requirement is IMPERATIVE to ensure that over-extension of poorly placed derivative capitulate and are mitigated BEFORE they create more systemic risks. By allowing poorly run financial institutions/casinos to operate with impunity to loose the valuation of small/large investors - then demanding that the tax payer cover these costs, is by all accounts a crime. A crime that is seemingly supported by, facilitated by, and encouraged by the regulating bodies that twist and alter rules, regulations, and laws to allow ongoing criminal activity until it is too late to recover from. I need to remind you, the SEC, as an agency with the United States Government, are here to protect the people of the land - all people, not just he people that you feel will offer you the best job positions (conflict of interest) when you need to leave government. The people, the investors that think that a "Free and Fair" market is still possible (even when it is not, with the current system in place that is regulated by you...). Start doing your job and protecting the interests of ALL the people. Not just he wealthy incapable money laundering financial terrorists you wish to avoid margin calling. Stop gaps are in place to protect the community at large. Once you start doing your job, maybe they will start to pay attention to the rules - but only when you actually do your job will that happen. We wait, and watch. Time is slipping by, the event horizon is fast approaching. We the People. All People Equal.
