Yes

Isnt lying under oath illegal?

I have easier access to financial resources. Can someone take responsibility for what happened to GameStop? How can you halt trading of a stock then lie under oath about it and get away with it? Are the people in your positions not held to the same standards as the rest of us?

When average Americans figured out how the game is played, they had their finances stollen from them in plain sight. Those responsible have yet to face consequences.
11. What else would you like us to know positive or negative - about your experience with online trading and investing?
Allowing retail traders easier access to financial success is good for the health of the nation. Rigging the game against them is not. If our institutions have no integrity there is no integrity left in our nation.
