If they assigned them by need, people with debt like you could get more and millionaires who likely profited off the pandemic in the first place.

Honestly? Politicians trading stocks is a lot more like the referee or the commissioner of the league betting on the games

[@Eoin-B]

​@@ChartreuseDan I only know about horse racing, but it's really similar to this insider trading but with strategic rostering who is opening up and pulling back slightly for another race. They are all friends and chat with each other while training each morning. Strategically they hold back horses if they are trying to drop them to lower leagues or save them for later races. This is coordinated between them to achieve wins. Tips are genuine things in horse racing and if you help train them, you see it all. Pretty corrupt. Also, substance bans are updated each year and only filtered down gradually to lower leagues, so at all levels, they use not yet banned performance-enhancing drugs. I would say it's only in the place I worked, but the phone conversations I was party to and that my cousins loved to talk, I saw it all. In the Olympics with the Russian scandals and many other countries caught doping they do the exact same. Slightly alter drugs each year, so they are not shown as a banned substance in their system. This is a constant in high-end horse racing and with people is the same in large countries. (Edit) Btw, their colluding was about keeping a balance of spreading wins and losses according to when they want to use the most of a horse or get a win with a worse one taking advantage of the fact the better ones are holding back. Corrupt in itself, but from what I've seen, they don't bet and just spread the winnings more predictably, but give out tips to friends.

i work cyber in the industry and can confirm. we are more restricted than us politicians.

[@MrSalads09]

Can confirm - used to work at a small restructuring investment bank and we sometimes had public clients in bankruptcy, it was very restrictive. FINRA regulated firms who deal with public clients or public securities must bar their employees from trading individual stocks unless they get written approval from compliance, and if you are cleared (if they reply fast enough) you can only trade on that same day, otherwise you have to ask again. Basically you have little agency to time any of your trades so it can seriously disincentivize if you are trying to make a short term or time sensitive play, basically keeping you from using long term limit orders or stop losses (you have to ask permission for selling too, same process). If you are employed by one of these firms, you also have to disclose all investment accounts you have under any broker dealer and any trades you make with that broker dealer are reported to your firm. Even if you individually don't have access to MNPI (material non-public info) but your firm does because they do business with a certain publicly traded client, you will get terminated for trading without permission. One caveat is you (most of the time) can trade ETFs or indexes freely without permission, which is how it should be for congress (though they would still have skated out of the covid selloff). It's fucking insane that the same scrutiny isn't applied, especially when they're out here convicting and fining people for insider trading (fines can be 2-3x the gain made or loss avoided for us normies). Disgusting hypocracy.

[@ChasmChaos]

@jackjones4824 I'm too uneducated to offer a nuanced answer. I have read that capitalism has a bigger body count than communism, and found the arguments compelling. I've also dabbled in the history of the Soviet Union and I know for a fact that American efforts at regime change played a big role in their failure.

[@ChasmChaos]

@jackjones4824 my reading suggests that colonialism was the mother of capitalism. The book "Empire of Cotton" goes into great depths into this, focusing on how English State Power appropriated wealth from the colonies using private actors who were then allowed to concentrate that capital and ultimately usurp power from the state. I agree there are a lot of intersecting Venn diagrams if we dive deeper into this topic. Again, I am not educated enough to even attempt an answer. I have my world view and, in it, capitalism isn't the holy saviour it's made out to be.

[@tempejkl]

@jackjones4824This is the funniest yet saddest thing about the American people. They are perhaps the most socialist people in the world, yet are too naïve to realise it. They have been taught their entire life that socialism is an evil thing, because it is in their best interests to make sure it never happens, as socialism will give the power to us people instead of them. Also, i see you mentioned that we shouldn't jump to Soviet style communism - completely true. Different economic systems function differently based on the material conditions, At that time, the USSR was a third world country in crisis with millions dead recovering from a civil war, over time, it became a first world country, reaching space, and briefly surpassing the USA economically in 1983 despite having a planned economy. Of course, it's not just about the material conditions, mistakes obviously must be acknowledge lest we repeat them.

The quick brag that he drank black coffee almost made me spit take my own coffee.. half and half.

[@xavierchoe8074]

Just want to throw in a little note for Dan & co: I saw the podcast from a few months ago with (ahh I forget who hosted) where you were talking about shooting on iPhones and how it related to the unique style of this channel. I noticed the bump in camera quality from this video, and although I think it represents an evolution in your style, I like it. Good cameras and the increase in in-person interviews are changes that I’ve liked, and I don’t think they ruin the style you guys have going on. Keep it up!

If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a big mistake.I realize that it could be due to inexperience, but if you want to make your finances work for you, prevent inflation from eroding your savings, build generational wealth, and cultivate good habits and financial knowledge, you must be in the market.

[@LesibaMothupi664]

The wisest thought that is in everyone's minds today is to invest in different income flows that do not depend on the government, especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver and digital currencies (BTC, ETH... Stock)

I have always wanted to trade crypto since 2019 but was scared due to its volatility, I think now I want to give it a try but don't know how to go about it.

[@harrydixon2120]

Same here all thanks to Mrs Jeffrey Kathryn, she has always been there to guide me through with detailed analysis and recommendations that I wouldn't have access to otherwise.

[@MarzenaDuda-lq4tq]

How please I'm pretty new and feel I have much to learn, I would appreciate if you show me how to go about it?

[@Erionbogdani-tj4gk]

After I raised up to 325k trading with expert Kathryn I bought a new House and a car here in the states also paid for my son's surgery (Oscar). Glory to God shalom.

[@WashingtonDC-gp6py]

*Thanks for continuing updates l'd rather trade the stock market as it's more profitable. I make an average of $54,500 per week even though I barely trade myself.*

[@MenubxcBway]

I'm favoured, $270K every 4weeks! | can now afford anything and also support God's work and the church.

[@Herbertmikel-yl6dg]

As a beginner what do I need to do? How can I invest, on which platform? If you know any please share.

[@bhbraidjgmacy]

I'd really like to get into crypto Investing. I have about $145k set aside, but I don't know anything about this market. Would you please provide the best approach to make money as well as a trustworthy resource for advice? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

[@NikkiStrazisartl]

The very first time we tried, we invested $1000 and after a week, we received $7500. That really helps us a lot to pay up our bills.

[@VddoyleBgreer]

Still regret that I sold my bitcoin early last year, even after my colleague insisted we shouldn't. Please Is Bitcoin still a safe buy to outperform the market this year? I still kept my money in the money market and with over $120k maturing soon, I plan investing well in it. Here for ideas

[@pablocohen2975]

7:10 This!! Thank you for such good reporting! It's nice to see finally people focusing on the right things and shining a light on obscure topics

[@ecg7841]

"Our lawmakers in Congress need to know as much as possible about the stuff that's going to impact our lives... but more importantly, our financial markets" 😂😂😂😂

[@LonkinPork]

meanwhile if you or a member of your immediate family works for a store that sells lottery tickets, you're not allowed to win the lottery.

[@KC-Mitch]

My belief is that federal politicians should make $500,000/year with the stipulation that they hold no job in office, can't work as a lobbyist for a minimum of five years (essentially killing that career option for all but a few), can't trade stocks themselves, and the investments of their immediate family members are public record while making insider trading illegal for them. Yes, there definitely is wiggle room for cheating, but it's much harder, and the role of plausible deniability narrows drastically.

[@cron1807]

Nah, they should make minimum wage so that they have to actually increase minimum wage to a livable amount.

[@NotTehJon]

@@cron1807 the only people in congress would be independently wealthy if that was the case

[@josiahcaterino]

@@NotTehJonThe mindset of consistency and grit required to become independently wealthy (assuming they're not born into generational wealth) is what Congress needs.

[@cousinpatsey2471]

​@josiahcaterino the people with that mindset are not at all incentivised to join politics, it's going to be people predominantly born into wealth taking positions.

[@josiahcaterino]

@@cousinpatsey2471 That's a fair point.

[@ThecRL0]

Actual Good Work, keep it up ^^

[@TheLegoPerson]

I'm really surprised this video doesn't have more views, this is one of their best yet!! The algorithm sucks

[@ppp-ti1iz]

The answer is no, conflict of interest.

[@whoeveruwantittobe]

I think members of congress should be able to trade on index funds or wide market accounts. Especially since it incentives them to ensure the total US economy is healthy rather than individual companies.

[@CalebRoenigk]

Or just put their assets in a managed trust, this is what we ask presidents to do with any companies they have during office.

[@jayburr73]

Just found your channel and I’m now subbed. Keep up the quality content !

[@josephrobinson6171]

It's not just access to information about the market that the general public will never know in time, it is the fact that they can affect and manipulate the free market, and their personal interest in seeing certain companies succeed or fail will affect their policy voting decision

[@ba8e]

I think they SHOULD be allowed to trade, BUT they must announce what they are buying 30 days in advance publicly. Right now, they have to disclose 45 days AFTER the trade.

[@ba8e]

@jackjones4824 EXACTLY! They are just investing long term for retirement... Right? RIGHT???

[@unownnnn]

I don't think anyone in their extended family should be able to trade

[@steflift5165]

How is that fair to their extended family? They have no say in what their family does for a living. I think there should just be much stricter insider trading monitoring

[@Hachikii]

The ban should also includes trading under a small corporations or trust !!!!!

[@tempejkl]

@@steflift5165Why does anyone need to trade? A company should be owned by it's workers, not lazy people who don't work

[@davidgillis5310]

I can’t put a finger on your journalism style, but it is absolutely brilliant and so well done. Discovered you after your video on I-Banking. Great work!

[@zaidlacksalastname4905]

Good Work, Good Work Weirdly enough this is the first real video I've watched from this channel even though I've been subbed for a while. Great stuff!

[@JosephDickson]

There's absolutely no reason why legislators should be investing in anything more specific than total and "maybe" broad market index funds.

[@GoodWorkMB]

We have now fully investigated political stock trading and your mom. What should we cover next?

[@nickkester4486]

Corporate ownership of housing. We're in a crunch up here in Canada, and I'm sure you guys down south aren't doing so hot either.

[@milan045]

There's this one news channel that just needs investigating. Could you please investigate them and their lead singer Dan Thomas? Thank you for all the good work you do.

Thank you for bringing this up! You are doing great work!

[@jackseely5529]

I wanna see Congress ppl having term limits just like the president. No one should hold a position of power in government for as long as some of our senators have...

Scott Perry jumping into the interview to relate march madness to the southern border was crazy 😂

This is quickly becoming my favorite channel

Very nice good work!

[@sortaspicey9278]

It's almost like politicians forget that they are public SERVANTS their job is to SERVE us in OUR best interest

[@Semper_Liberi]

Except that as long as we live in a society dominated and driven by money public servants and representatives will never be more incentivized to act in the public interest than in that of moneyed interests.

I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my entire life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Michelle Stewart.

Wow. I'm a bit perplexed seeing her been mentioned here also Didn’t know she has been good to so many people too this is wonderful, I'm in my fifth trade with her and it has been super.

Not if they are related to foreign companies like Israeli weapons manufacturers

Yeah no trading with war criminals!!!

REALLY interesting how the Dems spoke about it in terms of unfair self-enrichment, while the Rep spoke of it in terms of it impacting Decision making. Gotta hand it to Scott Perry that his take was a lot better. Damnit!
