Look at Al Gore, 8 years as VP and his net worth is now $500 million. How the hell did that happen? How much do VPs make? $200k a year before taxes? It’s all insider trading especially by that slimebag. I would say he invests in baloney green companies and has the government invest taxpayer bucks into it then he sells off at a huge profit when the stock rises then moves on to the next scam company. Then this other scam of his “carbon credits”. How that jackass is not in jail is beyond me.
That episode of Sixty Minutes is the one episode I really thank Mr. Kroft for, what’s sad is that most of the American populace won’t care about the message he was giving.
I agree about insider trading. That rule doesn’t apply to politicians, at least not strictly. Nancy Pelosi and her husband somehow doubled in worth since she’s been in office. How does that happen, unless there’s some kind of magic profit in owning a large ranch and orchard that I’m not aware of.
