I believe any attempt to restrict/regulate this kind of investing is insulting and must be stopped. If Im old enough to earn the money I invest, I should remain completely free to invest it how ever I want. Keep the government out of my private financial decision making!
It should be every individual investors right to choose the public investments. Leveraged ETFs should not be an exception.

I do not need to be "babysat" and told where I can and can't spend my own money. The proposal to regulate access to leveraged funds appears to be nothing more than a way for retail to be restricted from utilizing the full tools of the market, to the benefit of institutional investors.
