Bring back the protections put in place by FDR and worked for 75 years! The uptick rule, the prohibition against naked shorting for EVERYONE, strong enforcement of predatory stock manipulation, etc...

Dear Regulator(s), Kindly requesting you to reconsider the imposing investment restrictions to individual investors. I am in no position to analyze full picture of why considering such rule and what future impact will be for US investors.

I totally reject the government restricting my access to investment products that are properly and transparently marketed and regulated with regards to their upside and downside risks.
