Cut out the babysitting. What part of free market is going over your head? Do something useful like preventing selling short more stocks than there are in the float. Do something useful like regulating corruption in businesses. Do not take my rights away because you were given the idea by a nice dinner with some lobbyists.

We as Americans has the right in invest in stocks and bonds of our choice, not regulators. Why should we have to pass a test to invest, we can do our own research and decide if it is worth the risk to invest our money.

A daily, dedicated transcript of increase/decrease per shorts/float.

First of all- Proverbs 13:22 says that the sinners wealth is stored up for the godly. And good people leave an inheritance to their grandchildren! I fully believe that the Lord is bringing about a great transfer of wealth thru many means and avenues not just the stock market. I've seen Him (the Lord) use real estate and my husband and I were beneficiaries of that a few times. All that being
