FINRA and the SEC aren't doing enough to level the playing field for retail investors and we deserver the right for better transparency in the market. It's clear that illegal shorts are not covering their positions yet the slap on the wrist fines are merely considered the price to do business. This has to change!
Shorting as a market practice is a ridiculous concept to begin with because in no other area of a capitalist market can You borrow something that is already owned and then sell it, only to buy it back at a lower price to intentionally profit off of the original lender.

Hello and good evening. I would just like to comment that it makes no sense why the market maker "Citadel" trades on the dark pool that they created not having to report any information while they look at every order we make. Investing in a company should not be playing against the house, this is not a casino, it is an investment for the better of our economy. FINRA (you) reported GME
If anyone does read this, I would like to say thanks for doing so. First I would like to bring up the families these big hedge funds probably have destroyed by shorting companies they see as competition through what I believe is called compensated bonds.
