As far as the FTC/SEC thing goes...

First off, read the rest of the thread's posts, smart guy.

Secondly I don't have time to prepare an essay on the thing, but, needless to say, the FTC was founded two decades before the SEC was (which wasn't brought about until after the Great Depression), and, technically, their jurisdictions overlap in the area of your claims. Read their charters.
