I am writing to oppose restrictions to my right to invest in certain securities. These products can be very risky, and all investing has inherent risk, it depends on the person's financial situation and risk appetite.

I am advocating for the peoples right to choose what types of things to invest in. I find it an insult and huge impingement on my freedom to be prosperous.

Treat people like children and they become your children, and don't think for
This is a free market. Our investments should not be regulated.
I oppose restricting my ability to choose the funds I invest in. A great example is I recently took a small position in TBT which has cushioned the downturn in my bond holdings allowing me to continue to receive the income the bonds provide.
