  • Rumor has it this is a site that tells which stocks us politicians are purchasing the most. Just in case.

  • We should just ban them all from trading. 

    Amazing this group couldn't come to an agreement on that because AOC was part of the group pushing the issue.

    It is. Our politicians enrich themselves and make sure you can’t do what they do.

    I can't think of many politicians who have enriched themselves more than aoc.

    But there are dozens if not hundreds of ways for politicians to line their pockets. Good luck trying to write a vow of poverty into the constitution.

    ... Oh lord here we go. Making the point I referenced earlier. 

    Crazy to me there isn't universal support to remove the ability for politicians to trade and yet here we are.

    Not gonna typical Steve it today. 

    If you support Nancy Pelosi gaming the system then more power to you Steve. 

    If you want to protect your girl because there are other ways politicians can profit off of their position, then you do you.

    I disagree and think we should start with removing their ability to trade. Seems fairly common sense. But I guess not for everyone.

    Bear in mind, I’m pretty disconnected from the ins and outs of this, but from what I took from it that insider trading is illegal for me or you. Martha Stewart is wealthy and even she went to the pokey for insider trading. Politicians are clearly doing something that is illegal for me or you. I lean more guillotine than “here’s millions of dollars” when it comes to our current class of politician.Â
