I oppose restrictions on my rights to invest as I wish in public investments in regulated markets. I should be able to choose (without restriction) which investments are right for me, not just the privileged financial class. I shouldn't have to go through some special process or pass a test before having access to any public securities including, but not limited to: inverse funds, leveraged
I strongly believe in the importance of all Americans to guide their own financial decisions, to pursue their investment goals without interference. I am many things: an attorney, a wife, an investor, a mom to be, a video game developer... But under these varied hats, a regular American. Investing in leveraged and inverse funds carries risks, but risk is how Americans built this country through
