No naked short selling, no HFTs with co-located servers at exchanges, a SEC that actually enforces regs (e.g. Madoff and now Galleon- 10 years of ignoring evidence!!!), no unregulated derivatives markets, no Ag Committees controlling commodities derivatives!, a return to Glass Steagal, and finally an accountable Federal Reserve!! Independent AUDIT and arrest ...

Westport... I believe in free markets. Manipulating markets by the govt. is just as wrong as insider trading. How about all the money the govt. cost to all put buyers, and traders that short the markets? Guess they don't count.I'm not a bear or bull, but what the US govt. is doing is outrageous, and criminal.

The person on the street is always a slave to the whims of the market manipulators: will they prop or will they dump? It used to be called investment and speculation, now it's called a casino. The difference is when speculating or investing, the participant can exit the trade with some money remaining having not lost it all if it moved in the "wrong" direction: at the casino you lose it all ...

That's why banks and insurance companies should DIE! They should be subjected to Death Panels of by and for the people. From here on forward, energy, air and water should also be included as those most valuable resources in our lives that are under our complete and total control. Not some ConglomoCorp. Not PoliticoCorp. Not noone but US.
