Not really a shitpost when it’s just highlighting a very real form of open corruption in the USA…
Because the ‘we’ in ‘we allow’ is also congress
Ahhh, yes. More obvious crimes that will never be acknowledged, nor punished.
This problem is US specific, I guess. Many countries disallow politicians to trade or at least limit it severely.
Believe it or not, they’re actually working on that. Whether it will come to pass is anyone’s guess though.
well if the bookies were making the rules of international sporting events i’m sure they would have removed that rule by now
Because athletes don’t get to set the rules they have to abide by.
Imagine if the players could rewrite the rules of the game.
Because they legalized their own crimes and corruption. Also, Citizens United was the death blow to any working class influence in America
STOCK Act already bars congress from investing in companies they regulate.
