Be vigilant to take oversight to the actions that guide
these SEC policies,
for better or worse. We have become increasingly more active in
demanding positive change and we sorely need your help. We can't
take much more daily losses! My husband and I lost $125,000 due to the
Drexel Burnham Junk Bond scandal and our Chase Bank investment advisor
denied knowledge of it, "lost" his log book, then
disappeared in Atlanta GA! Our money disappeared by the touch of a
computer keystroke! And all the advisor could say the $125k was only
registered under his SS# and not his name Lawrence Mesh & in
another location and the advisor wouldn't say where!! We never
recovered any money! No one was talking! The sanctity
of the United States Financial Markets depending heavily upon your
ability to protect investors and enforce the rules against those who
look to exploit the sanctity of our markets.

These actions are becoming increasingly untenable and eventually we
will see the negative impacts that will bear financial consequences if
these exploitations are not rectified if they continue unchecked.
Please hold those accountable to highest standard with no leeway given
to any who fail to properly interact within the proper function of our
markets. We need to eliminate the secondhand functions of these
supposedly legitimate actions that include, but are not limited to
FTDs, darkpool activity, mis-marking sales, and skirting the buy ins
of securities that are legitimately purchased through brokers,
transfer agents, and any who have a fiduciary responsibility to act on
the behalf of common investors. We need greater protection for all
investors who are considered long investors, and greater
accountability for short sellers and hedge funds regardless of their
accumulative wealth.
