Well, it took two tries, and he won reelection in between, but Chris Collins got 26 months for his insider trading shenanigans, so perhaps we can rid ourselves of these corrupt congresscritters.

New law: A public official owning stock sells and someone believes they used inside information, they may file a complaint. A filed complaint will be heard by a three arbitrator board, one selected by the complainant, one by the official and the third by those two arbitrators together. If insider trading is the decision of these three (by majority vote), the fine is the dollar value between the sold price and the lowest price since then until the decision date, plus an additional 20% of total money received from the sale of the stock. That’s a disincentive!CenterPuke88https://www.blogger.com/profile/17770056621255249861noreply@blogger.com
