This proposed rule is an affront to anyone and everyone who has ever purchased a security in our markets. The NSCC would have you endorse their criminal activities under the illusion of fairness.

I would ask that you help by denying this and any other rule changes they propose to further promote their systemic corruption.

I implore you to take this threat to the very sanctity, fairness and transparency of our markets for what it is - a threat against every single retail investor. That there are rules for thee but not for me. Please do your part and stop this.
