For whom it may concern at the SEC, 


Differences in security pricing discriminating by order volume should not be permitted to any degree. Large volume trading is only accessible to the wealthiest institutions and the influence and privileges these institutions already have when operating in the market is oppressive. Retail investors are currently subject to financial bullying by dominant market participants like hedge funds and prices discriminating by order volume only accentuate the inequalities of the market and vulnerabilities of retail investors. 


In support of a fairer market for all investors, I heartily endorse proposed rule 6b-1.
