The "Stock act", the rule that was sailing through that would stop members of congress and senate from an exemption on insider trading of securities is getting mucked up. K street lobbyist are on it now. Do they work for you? No, they work for the 1% that owns Congress and they don't want it.
Already some GOP dick wad has added a line to the bill removing exemptions from trading in land and property as well. I must say that is a good idea, and I didn't even know these pricks had that perk. But........this was done to kill it. Why? Who? Some sweet insider deals appear to be in the offing for some key senate or congress crooks and this is a way to kill it, kill it and they won't be able to do it. I have thought for a long time some of these shits were buying land to sell for the new army base, pipeline, or government office.
Are these Republicans working for you? Who the hell are they working for? Why do these dicks think they should have exemptions from insider trading of any kind? I'll tell you why, because they are part of the aristocracy and it's not stealing to them, it's not unfair to them, their entitled. This needs to pass and instead of the real estate rule added being a killer it should be what makes it a must pass.
Yes, you can tell by how they don't want to talk about it that they are not 'proud' of this exemption. They know it's not 'right' or 'fair.' But they have it and they like it and they want to keep it. Just like slavery in the South, back in the day.
ReplyDeleteKevin, If insider trading won a trip to jail for Martha Stewart, then it should be good enough for Can't'er and Boner. Maybe they could make some festive designs with cigarette wrappers at Christmas.
