It is a "free market", and hence I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all the public, not just the privileged. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I have sat for
