Good men and women fought and died to give us a freedom that is being stolen from us by those who should be protecting us. Infuriating and disrespectful

When the big boys lose they get Gov bailouts. When the little people win, especially when at the expense of the big boys, they cry to the Gov & get the rules & laws changed, all in the name of 'fairness", and due to that fucked up Capitalism, of course.

In the end we're all fucked! Like Greg always says, The fed and the ruling class are backed 100% by military force. Everything will be shut down, your accounts, your atm's, they did this in 2008. The atm's were closed. They will take Greg's Camaro away and make it a company car for the the fed. Yellow stain will be driving Greg's Camaro to pick up Yellen stain for date night. Sure, lets try to make as much money as we can, but maybe spend some time learning other skills besides staring at a computer screen.

I skimmed some profits off the top and sent it to my bank account. I'll take that and buy crypto and physical silver with it.

Is this any surprise to anyone? As Greg would say - here is my shocked face.

What I'm really worried about, Greg, is that they will move all the action into the overnight hours so that we scalpiplebs can't even collect the crumbs from under the table any longer.

Of course they do. It's the two tier feudal system. Around every corner is a big fuck you. When it comes down to it, your trading accounts, bank accounts, 401k's, etc. don't even belong to you. When these entities default, even with cash accounts, FDIC doesn't mean shit, creditors get first dibs on everything and the individual is at the end of line. Read the fine print. It's there.

Who are they to stop this! People have a right to do whatever they want with their funds. The Fed comes together and prints cash into infinity costing the 99% more by destroying the purchasing power and halting the currency velocity, and give the currency to the top, and now they are pissed because the people are fighting back! Communist Markets!!!! Bring the Gold standard back or a bitcoin standard !!!!! People fight back the FED MUST GO!

They rig elections. Everybody with only one braincell left knows. Why shouldnt't they rig markets? It's aways the same when markets are in fat moves. I remember the Flashcrash. I was short on the market. Then I tried to take profit. Was near the low. But no orders possible. Markets flashed up, so someone has had to be able to buy/close shorts. Me not. At the end, when it works again I made a lot of money. But much much more would have been possible. Thats the game. We are fighting with Wooden Swords.

How is this buy restriction rigging "not" illegal? I would love the SEC to explain this. Don't get me wrong, I want nothing to do with these particular trades, but I don't understand why Ameritrade gives a shit if I choose to...unless they're giving institutions a second crack at shorting. Are institutions able to open new puts? I watched a clip of Fox's Stuart Varney lamenting that WSB's members are turning trading into a "casino". Too funny.

They also restricts puts. So no one can profit from the fall or rise while major players are unrestricted.

Lawsuits play out in courts. Big money controls all of government including the courts. All judges are crooks and scoundrels. Us little people are screwed.
