  • “qualified investors” are criteria you must meet for the riskiest investments, basically that you can handle the loss

I'm surprised you're not calling that a government overreach considering your previous comment.

Do you think the current government controls are working and shouldn't be changed at all?

We haven’t had a real depression in 100 years, so something is working. Sure, we have recessions periodically and some are worse than others, but as long as it’s relatively limited.

I think that a lot of regulations were put in place for a reason. Whether they work for that reason or not, it would be better to understand the reason before blindly removing regulations
