You so-called "regulators" are nothing [REDACTED] You constantly turn a blind eye to financial crimes committed at the highest level. You now want to shut down regular, retail investors from making an honest buck. All while you [REDACTED] scream from the rooftops how you're protecting the FREE MARKET. The hypocrisy just never ends.
