I WANT TO CHOOSE PUBLIC INVESTMENTS THAT ARE RIGHT FOR ME. LEVERAGED AND INVERSE FUNDS ARE IMPORTANT TO MY INVESTMENT STRATEGIES. RESTRICTIONS SHOULD NOT BE PUT ON MY RIGHT TO INVEST.

People should be free to use their money however they want, especially deciding on what to invest.
We are already allowed to gamble, consume unhealthy food, or buy superfluous goods, including digital ones, with no tangible value nor ROI. Since we are not limited when we are simply spending money, we should not be limited when investing money either.
Investment opportunities should not be restricted to a small segment of society.
Liberty and pursuit of happiness are some of unalienable Rights.

USA was and has been built on the idea of venture into the unknown amid uncertainty. Restricting the free idea that one can succeed based on one's certainty of future and one's self-respect concerning the inherent or cultivate confidence is subduing the very idea of freedom behind the capitalism that has served as the foundation of our great nation.

Please stay out of my business. I am much better at making decisions that effect my own well being than you are. Please stay in your lane and stay out of my investment decisions. I am smarter and better at this than you are.

I'm an independent investor, and have been investing for 40 years. I would appreciate it if the federal government would mind there own business. The federal government can't even manage themselves let alone attempting to control independent investors.
Dear FINRA,
I heard that regulations are being considered by FINRA to make certain popular complex investments unavailable to by bought by general public, including leveraged and inverse funds.
Ive been using leveraged ETFs in particular for long time as investment and trading vehicles and Im very concerned that myself and other market participants will no longer be able to buy those ETFs. I personally know at least a dozen of other traders who have been using those ETFs as part of their trading strategies for years.
