 It is absolutely unthinkable that a person charged with insider trading and fraud (Steve Cohen) would be allowed, via his hedge fund, to operate anything resembling an exchange.

If this exchange allowed to exist the stock market in the US will have signaled itself as having absolutely no respect for truth and transparency, and will make it clear to individual investors that it is too fraudulent for market position of any kind.

The market is already completely out of balance due to market distortions created by naked short selling, payment for order flow, front running, failing to deliver, and other forms of market manipulation. This change would tilt the scales even further. Will this be the change to make them topple? Nobody knows. But one thing is certain: you will not be able to look back and say \"we never could have imagined this could happen\" because every sane person is screaming at you, today, that it can.
