I do not want my rights to be taken away to be able to invest in leveraged and inverse funds.

I should be able to choose what I invest in. Voting for this limitation will keep poor people poor. We should have the freedom to invest as we please.

Do not restrict my right to trade in whatever product I choose. These products are 10 years or more old and I have done my own research and analysis for days and weeks total time. You were not restricting the same products when they were going up, so you should not restrict them on the way down. You will be hurting the people you are intending to help because you cannot pick and choose what directions markets end up taking. Every investor has the choice to make his/her decision when investing and that is their choice to invest in whatever they want to invest in.

Dear Sir/Madam, I work as an R&D Engineer, and consider myself a middle class American. I frequently invest in ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ ETF, symbol SQQQ, and ProShares UltraPro QQQ, symbol TQQQ. These funds give me great flexibility in meeting my long term investment goals. I am well informed of exactly what these funds offer, and am able to incorporate them into my investment strategy. So far, they have benefited me greatly. Any measures to put restrictions on trading them will create great inconvenience for me and will be counter productive to retail investors like me.

Leave our access to the option market alone. Risk management is best handle when the risks are sometimes learned through trial and error. The best investors do not start off perfectly. Most become good to great in options as investor risk mangers when the heat is on and risk aversion is realized through that seat of the pants experience. This experience can only come to those that get back up after being knocked down by the market. My risk are my growth into a mature human being. I request FINRA back away from this decision and watch what Americans can really do while growing up.

I oppose restrictions on my rights to invest. Sometimes something that sounds like it will protect people, may do the exact opposite of what's intended. I believe in a correctly regulated and open market and invest strategies that benefit people. This is not a correctly regulated step and will hurt my ability to make choices about the investments that I would like to make. I am also free to not invest in things I don't want to. To make regulation on these specific types of investments will limit my choices and freedoms I expect regulators to protect, not damage.

This is not acceptable! We deserve the right to invest in the free market!

Everyone should be able to buy and sell shares - like freedom of speech it should not be regulated!

It is important to have freedom to invest in instrument you feel safe.

Stop acting like the law does not apply to you, you dorks
