chosen: I think this is highly inappropriate and an unacceptable conflict of interest. Members of Congress should not profit from their position in government, and by trading stocks associated with companies they regulate, they stand to gain financial gain that is not available to other citizens. Moreover, as the insiders on the legislative side have more information about a company than the average investor, this sets up a situation in which those in the know can use the system for their own financial gain. This is an affront to fair markets and a danger to the integrity of government. I believe there should be no loopholes in this area, and those that participate in insider trading should be met with stiff penalties. Moreover, the companies associated with such insider trading should receive harsh consequences as well, as their lack of disclosure undermines the transparency needed for investors to make well-informed decisions.
