@freepatriot And my answer is... of course they are. First of all there are no laws against politicians engaging in insider trading in the US. The second reason is that since we are witnessing the decline of democracy, and a rise in authoritarianism in the world, this also is leading to an erosion of values. That is why western politicians, regardless of color and ism, are way, WAY more wealthy than the average citizen. They are simply corrupt to the core, and that is undermining freedom and democracy.
