About this listen
Lost in the Political Woods, episode 17 description
Why stock trading by members of Congress should
Bills on this issue are constantly due.
Members of Congress make important decisions
These decisions shouldn't be influenced by their stock portfolios
Eg defense and insurance companies
It's nothing less than insider trading
In Congress it's something you can get away with little consequences as well
If Martha Stewart can go to jail for insider trading, so can members of Congress
See you next week!
