Not quite - the US government does everything it can to help it's citizens.

'Citizens' in this instance being those that hold enough capital to be allowed to invest.

You have to be an 'accredited investor' to buy shares without a middleman broker. An 'accreditation' you gain simply by having enough money. Don't have enough money? Not allowed to make money! Those are the people US gov considers 'citizens'.

This has always been the US system of government.

    That's likely the intent from the start.

    Labor are huge on adding more useless rules that only small business and sole traders have to follow.

    Also never forget that they're union busting thugs now.

    Vote #1 Greens for real change.
