I not regulators should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for me and my family.

I don't want the government telling me what I can and can't do.

I've probably been investing longer than most of all of the appointees to the board. I've been investing for over 50 years. Why do you think I need your help?

Force disclosure of material risks - then let investors decide. Don't think that you are somehow more knowledgeable than individual investors.

Please leave things alone.

Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

Restrictions on free investment are detrimental to the fundamentals of American life This sounds like something Putin would do

I Oppose Restrictions to my right to invest.

Hello!
My name is Jillian Cardona. I live, work and study in the state if Texas. Im a full time college student and work full time. I dont think I should have to pass a special test just to invest. By restricting the peoples right to invest, it will only cause more upset in the American People. There are many good things about living in the United States, like having the freedom of investing. Thank you for your time and have a great day!

I have traded EFTs for more than 15 years, mostly leveraged, both on the positive and the inverse side, and sometimes both at the same time to hedge my position. I consider it a great way to protect my assets when I or my gurus seem particularly un-certain of the trend. Taking away this mechanism would be a totally ignorant idea, in my opinion. Sure, you need to know what you're doing, but that should be explained, and you live and learn.

Im perfectly capable of handling my own investment decisions, thank you very much. Furthermore, I work for a company that has several REITS in place to invest in commercial real estate. You will hurt my employer by limiting potential investors who might otherwise help us find our endeavors.

Public investments should be available to all the public, not just the privilege.

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 few. They are already holding the majority of the wealth in this country. My investment is for my future home and retirement. If this country refuses to let people choose their investments what is the point of being a US citizen? This is gatekeeping wealth and preventing upwards financial earnings from the middle class. This country is becoming less and less free by the year. Eat the rich.

I enjoy the right to purchase leveraged investment instruments as part of protecting my portfolio against market downturns. There a few other instruments that will work during downturns except cash.
