60 Minutes sounds pretty good tonight.
The first segment is on how members of the House and Senate can use insider information to buy stock.

1. Helping the 1% get richer any way possible.
Illegal for you and me, but politicians are above the law on this issue.

2. Can the Atty General investigate the Congress?
There is probably some illegality there.

4. So that's how they become multimillionaires on a public servant's salary.
Hope all the crooks get their just rewards.

This is the shit that angers me every time they show up on tv telling us what is good for us. They make the laws they buy and sell stocks and so do their friends and family. All of these million sires and billionaires in the congress and senate.
