How would the SEC reduce "risks related to going and staying public?"

For starters, make the rules for the first 365 days after the IPO the same as being private; which would include limiting the first year of the IPO to qualified investors.

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of an IPO? The P does stand for public after all.

Doing it this way would remove a lot of risk for the general public after he 365 days passes. Have a better idea?
