Just curious why no one wants to go after these hugely blatant examples of congressmen and women using congressional knowledge to make trades and in doing so they are defrauding other investors to get rich, often Americans.
I know that if my trades looked like some of the really bad apples the SEC would be up my butt with a magnifying glass so big I wouldn’t even be able to walk for a week, they would execute search warrants on me and anyone who manages my investments, and I would almost definitively end up in jail.
Why aren’t we doing anything? It’s completely unfair, as someone making a congressional salary, and privilege to serve which some people can only dream of, and to just use it to your advantage is a sign of pooooor ethics, morals, etc not what is expected of our representatives.
I’m relatively poor, I wish they would let me do insider trading like congress does, wouldnt be nice to have a get rich easy card.
