I don't believe you should have the right to limit the choices I make with my money, even for my own good. Some of the successes we get might be just luck, and sometime knowledge is your worse enemy, but in the end what I do with my money is my choice. History shows that what we think we know is not what is so, Washington mutual bank, MCI and others closed their doors overnight and yet they were deemed large and solid. If I want to go tomorrow to Las Vegas and bet all my saving on Red, nothing keeps me from doing that.

I should be able to choose any investment I would like without any special tests or testing. Investing in cryptocurrencies is a very important aspect in the diversification of my investment portfolio.

How is owning a security a bigger threat than owning a firearm? Currently I dont have to take any tests or demonstrate any knowledge to own a firearm or ammunition, and any risks involved with gun ownership the government considers acceptable. So how exactly does these new rules protect me? I dont see how the government can tell me Im competent enough to own a firearm and ammunition but not a security.

I strongly oppose this regulation, which could disrupt the financial market and discourage people from investing. Nobody need to pass a test before ordering food from Subway. If you're not responsible for your own decision, then government is going to take away your freedom.

I oppose limitations on my ability to buy and use these funds.

Too much regulation!!! I should be able to make my own decisions as to how and when I invest my money. Especially how and which methods I use.

People should have the ability to protect themselves in cases of market downturns. People understand insurance against unforeseen events. A market downturn just when you need your money is a serious event. People need to be able to buy protection against that. Also, there is plenty of information made available to investors about these funds. The average investor should understand it well enough.
Or are you just worried about the professional leveraged long investors who don't like it when people are able to short the market and make their speculative bets go awry?
