you're right,
no matter dark pool, naked shorting, manipulation, practicaly NO APPROPRIATE FINES for wrong doing and much more, therefore
many call it THE UNITED FAKES OF AMERICA my interpretation: they, the authorities, SEC, DTCC and the like are united in the fraud they commit -to the 99%ters of their people -to all international investors -to steal from all of them in pretending 1. we have rules 2. we have fines, if someone commits crime i say to 1. yeah, with build in loopwholes to 2. for this, they have alibi fines, which seems!! appropriate, BUT NOT : "earn" 3.5 bill, pay 50 mill, NO JAIL and NO MATTER HOW OFTEN thank you UFA
