[QUOTE="Blinocac200sx, post: 1711838, member: 5"] But, what if he's right? What if this is nothing more than political posturing by the Senate to grab themselves a pat on the back at a time when their approval rating is incredibly abysmal? It's not so hard to believe considering insider trading is already illegal, so this bill is effectively nothing. If anything this bill may provide reps a legal loophole out of prosecution. Hooray!?! But ultimately I'll say the real problem we have here is having a standing congress in the first place. They should be like the national guard, and only called up in times of extreme emergency. We have no need to pass new laws year after year, and they've proven that we don't need them to pass a budget every year. Get rid of the whole concept and we'd save a lot of money and hardship.
