America is the land of the free. The idea that certain financial instruments should be denied to all but a few that are allowed past some form of gatekeeper is glaringly unAmerican and unconstitutional. I urge you to protect our rights to purchase leveraged and inverse ETFs. Thank you.
FINRA Requests Comment on Proposed FINRA Rules Governing Markups, Commissions and Fees
The small individual investor should be entitled to invest in the same instruments as the very wealthy. The divide between the wealthy and the rest of the population is growing exponentially.

This could potentially deny me the freedom to choose investments, like leveraged ETF's, that could help me achieve long-term financial security. I should be able to choose investments based on the long-standing disclosure-based system, without jumping through even more hoops.
