John Martin Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I strongly oppose the regulation of types of investments I am able to make for myself and my family. This is the United States of America - we have the freedom to invest in the properties that we choose without special restrictions and without passing a test or having a minimum level of net worth and that should not change. I study long and hard before making an investment decision and do not wish to be limited in the types of investments that I can choose. Please do not pass this proposed regulation.

I have invested electronically through Morgan Stanley's ETRADE since it's inception back in 1994. I live in NYC for 34 yrs & know all the public markets well. I have experience in FOREX (25YRS) & the same approximate history within the fixed income, stock & commodities markets. Trade in these US Equity markets is a FUNDAMENTAL AMERICAN CIVIL RIGHT. BARRING ANY US CITIZENS FROM CONDUCTING THEIR OWN DUE DILIGENCE AND MAKING THEIR OWN INVESTMENT CHOICES SHOULD PIT THE LEGISLATOR OF THE RESTRICTIVE LEGISLATION AGAINST ALL 350M AMERICAN CITIZENS.

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest.
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

Times are changing and people are capable of educating themselves and shouldn't have to pass a test to invest in specific options. this is clearly an attempt to make the wealthy wealthier and keep the current finance regime of banks and hedge funds in place.
