Regarding the snark: The OP suggests making major alterations to the functioning of equity markets, without any evidence that he's done any research or even thought carefully about the costs and benefits involved. He suggests that the proposed changes are highly beneficial (we might even cure cancer!). How seriously are we supposed to take this sort of thing? Should we also welcome the kind of amateur mathematician who has a simple proof of Fermat's Last Theorem? Personally, I think a bit of snark is warranted.
