This is why people making $190,000 a year are worth 100's of millions.

Well as a CNBC (surprisingly) study showed, members of Congress typically make “market crushing” returns.

It’s a tough economy. The American Politburo is trying to stretch every dollar THEY have and get while the gettin’ is good.

Exempt from 0bamacare (theirs is a gift from the little people), their own Cadillac pension (not SS), insider trading (you & I go to jail, they make millions), perks even a king would be embarrassed to be caught taking.
Yeah, shooting sounds right. But only after a few days in the stocks, and I’m not talking Wall Street, so we could pelt them with rotten vegetables.

“$60 million net worth isn’t enough for Nancy Pelosi?”

Try Fineswine’s hubby “Tricky Dicky Blum,” getting all the business of selling off “surplus” USPS buildings. He’s getting both sides of the commission on each sale so he gets the full 6%. As Mel Brooks once said, “it’s nice to be the king.”

Both parties and both houses of Congress voted to end the disclosure to the American “small” people...by unanimous consent. These actions along with the raping of the USD by chairman bernaccky would in our past history be sufficient for at least a tea party of mass proportions or a declaration of war against the renegade astrocratic "so called leaders"

but the majority are too stupid to know what is happening to them or too cowardly to act!

What ban? There was never a ban! Pelosi and her husband are filthy rich from insider trading. This is insanity.
