karl_chungusMembers of Congress may be about to get a pay raise for the first since 2009
And yet (for many) their net worth has increased significantly while in office.
If they outlaw congressional stock trading, I’m fine with them doubling their salary.
If we outlaw it they’ll just go around it using someone else as a proxy. Must try harder. :(
Best do nothing then!
So with the bullshit down and gloom, that’s how they get away with never fixing anything. It’s also a lot easier to trace insider trading when they go through a proxy.
Oh I’m not advocating for nothing, just saying that alone this isn’t enough.
We should absolutely outlaw congressional stock trading, and more.
