It is the right of the people to decide how and where to spend and invest their dollars. This was not and should not be the job of the federal government.
The proposed rule limits access to investments and and gives more power to unelected bureaucrats. I oppose these restrictions on the right of myself and others to invest freely.
Our investments have been individually designed by each investor over decades. You must not restrict or alter the way we conduct our business. We need freedom, not rules to constrict us. LEAVE OUR INVESTMENTS ALONE!
