It is important to me, an active trader who makes a living off the markets,
to be able to get the best price a market is willing to provide. Allowing
the large option exchanges and brokerages an advantage provides no useful
economic advantage to America, other than lining the pockets of a select few
within these companies. Whereas, best price availability has the
opportunity to line the pockets of tens of thousands of individuals with
trickle down to the government itself. Give the people of America the
opportunities they need and deserve and they will deliver. However, favor
the few large institutions that lobby hard, and the government and people
will eventually lose.

You decide. My vote goes to keeping BOX and any other regulation that
favors and protects the American individual taxpayer and voter.

Thanks for your time.
