Americans should be able to invest however they want to invest without requiring any government approval. The government cannot keep nannying over the American public, considering how bad they are at nannying themselves. The unintended consequences of this will be brutal, so many entities will not get the investment it needs and many Americans will be split by who's rich enough to invest in the secret regulated securities and who's not. This undemocratizes investing and favors the rich. This does not protect anyone.
I prefer making my own investment decisions versus regulators who can manage their own assets BUT need to learn to leave my decisions up to me. Unless they are actively trading their own assets and clients' retail assets, I find their wanting to rule on these matters self-serving, ignorant to peoples' rights to educate, learn and wisely choose and highly unreliable to ethical standards for selection and education.
I want education and awareness. I prefer regulators and politicians get educated and avoid illegally censoring our choices.
Financial decisions are included in the rights guaranteed to individuals in the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. Those so engaged understand and accept the risks involved in such activity. The only things guaranteed in life are death and taxes.
Please don't take away our rights to invest our money as we see fit.
Please do not restrict leveraged ETFs
I object to the Finra proposal Rule#22-08
Dont change the system
With all Given rights, I am against imposing any restrictions on my decisions and rights to purchase funds, investments and stocks (BITI).
Thank you
Please do not add regulations so only privileged people can invest in the market. I am against the FINRA proposed rule number 22-08.
