Should members of Congress be banned from trading stocks? THAT’S one of the stupidest questions I’ve ever heard. Guess what? 97% of respondents agreed with me and answered YES to the question. For Christ’s sake! Members of Congress have inside knowledge and information days, if not weeks, before regulatory guidance or rules are released for wide dissemination. There are insider trading laws prohibiting Wall Street types from trading based on backroom intelligence. Why should the bodies of politicians who make up those rules be treated any differently?
