Consumer protection is important, so I am against this as written, but not in spirit. I am a big fan of another change where the SEC's opened up crowdsourcing for equity. It will probably need tweaking as time goes on, because it will be hard to open this door without letting fraud in with it which is why it was so hard to pass in the first place. However, if I can put in 25$ to buy a share of stock in a mom and pop startup bakery for example, it could be the biggest boom to small business growth the world has ever seen in the long term perspective.
