STOCK MARKET DISSOLUTION
Stock Market Dissolution Process
The Stock Market in the United States of America consists of multiple exchanges, the most notable one being on Wall Street in NYC. That being said, all Stock Markets engage in the same speculative activites of determining value of a given stock or commodity, then giving the public the option of buying or selling shares based on those speculations, whims, or no reason at all. Numerous laws, and attempts at regulation exist, but fundamentally the nature of a Stock Market, is for those with the most Stock to control the remaining Stock Holders, and influence competing stocks accordingly. This has naturally lead to a consolidation of Stocks, Financial Firms, and other Industries trurning into monopolies, or conglomerates.
All of these activities fly in the face of a fair, and open market, let alone a free market. These activities further disregard the real value of companies, industries, or commodities and have caused institutions to manipulate shares, or valuation through various means to undermine those real values. An extremely famous example of this is the Gamestop Stock rug pull, whereby a multitude of of Retail Traders were able to successfully manipulate the Gamestop Stock while Financial Firms were attempting to shortsell the company into oblivion.
Given that these incidents were both success and failure of market control, manipulation, and behavior, it also highlights that the Stock Market is not regulated enough, and that no amount of regulation could prevent large scale manipulation whether that be of the public or of Capital.
Therefore, for the sake of national security, the safety, and integrity of the US Economy the Stock Market shall be Dissolved in the following Manner.
All Stocks and trades shall be frozen from a given time in the past that shall be universal across all tradable assets.
Since this will impact the international community at large, there may be immense efforts to "pull out" before the freeze and lock in potential gains, or attempt to bankrupt companies in advance. For this reason the date of the freeze shall not be announced in advance.
All Stocks, at the value upon the date of the freeze, shall be liquidates at cost, starting with Retirement funds to ensure minimal losses to peoples retirement and livlihood. All other investment funds shall be liquidated in kind, until all monies have been disbursed.
Companies in the United States of America, that meet the Federalization threshhold shall be Federalized upon completion of Stock Liquidation
Any efforts to reopen the Stock Exchanges, whether in defiance of this provision, or through lobbying efforts shall incur charges of Insurrection, and Economic Terrorism with penalities up to and including the Death Penalty.
