FINRA -

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. Let the average investor have access to the same investment products as the "Accredited Investor" does. That would be freedom. Disallowing it is tyranny.

There should be no restrictions.

I don't need a government agency to protect me from myself.

Thank you very much.

Restricting access to capital markets is a form of modern day redlining. Honestly, given the low capital base from which I start, I would not stand a chance of building an investment portfolio of any size without the use of leverage or derivatives.

I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. It is my money and I can do with it as I choose!! You CANNOT restrict this!!

Allow us the right to invest what we want. Why does the government always think they can control what its people do? If we had all these rules in place when this country was founded we would cease to exist as country. It's our hard earned money we are investing.

Please allow qualified investors to invest in the manner they see fit.
Stop babysitting adults and let each person be responsible for their actions.
Too many rules!
One thing you can do is to not allow people to short equities unless there is an uptick.
Some genius killed that rule, creating a lot of havoc in the market.
Take care of things that helps the market be stable, not blocking people from doing what they want, even if they lose money!
Thank you.

Ive been using these instruments for years and understand the risk. Please do not change regulations.

You shouldnt restrict my access to funds that I have been investing in for years. Your proposed changes are arbitrary and subjective. I invest in these funds to hedge other investments, but they arent complex.

There is risk investing in the stock market already and we don't need the regulators to impose any restriction on our abilities to buy and sell any stocks, especially those that we may already have positions established. New regulations for existing stocks, including current leveraged and inverse funds, expose investors to unnecessary risks beyond our initial decisions to buy or sell. Please don't complicate the situation for investors.

You have no right to tell me what to do, I mean what's next you going to tell him how much water I can use when I can mow my lawn when I can pee in your front yard you have no right to tell anybody what to do you probably can't even get your own life right how are your juvenile delinquent teenagers doing today

Actually, I think it is appropriate to limit certain types of investment vehicles to people who can demonstrate that they understand them. So, go for it.
