Reposting from a child comment: I don't know why anyone is talking about insider trading. I don't give a shit if the congresspeople do insider trading. What I care about is that if congresspeople can trade at all, they have a conflict of interest in doing their legislative duties. They are incentivized to pass laws that will benefit corporations and make the stock market rise. That's what is unacceptable about Congress trading. Banning trading totally is the only thing that matters.
