Ban insider trading in Congress as well. Double their salaries, ban all speculative activity, and monitor their inflows/outflows and large property purchases so that no shenanigans occur under the table.
It's blindingly obvious corruption when Nancy Pelosi is able to do better in the stock market than Warren Buffett, and all hedge funds save for RenTech: https://twitter.com/nancytracker https://twitter.com/nancytracker
It's nuts when congresspeople pretend to "grill" Big Tech and Big Pharma execs while holding multmillion dollar positions in their companies' stocks.
If there is a real "threat to our democracy", this is it. This is the threat. Of course this would deprive congresspeople of billions of dollars in stock gains, so you can be 100% sure no laws abridging any such activity will ever pass, but one can dream.
