I do not believe regulators should be the deciding voice on what is and is not appropriate investments. Ensure proper disclosures to the investor should be required but not picking and choosing investments.
I oppose the restrictions trying to be imposed by FINRA related to FINRA Regulatory Notice #22-08.
It should be my decision to choose the public investment that is right for me. Public investments should be just that, available to the public not just the privileged. Leave the publics rights alone and allow us to choose what is the best investment for ourselves. I shouldn't have to go
I'm a fiscally responsible trader. Preventing people from openly trading due to irresponsible gamblers only harms people like me.

I would prefer to make my own financial decisions instead of being guided by regulations. I understand that those decisions may be risky, and the risks are mine to bear. Thank you.
The proposed regulations are, quite frankly, stupid. Leverage is easy to understand, and while it carries risks, it would be exclusionary and harmful to prevent people from investing in a basic public security that happens to be leveraged.
