Should I have a child I disagree with politically and that child gets elected to congress, how is it fair that I cannot work for a company that child regulates in congress?

Life not being fair, what a resounding shock. Our Constitution should make everything absolutely fair!!! Oh, wait, who does that sound like.

The phrase "conflict of interest" wasn't just made up by the stinky hippies, you know.

I am not bound by the career choices of others even if I share DNA with them. Find the constitutional authority for such limitations and we can discuss it further. I’m not asking anyone to make life fair. I’ll settle for constitutional.
