[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Paul Pelosi’s questionable Wall Street windfall spurs bipartisan calls for stock trading ban

On the things-that-should-be-done-but-haven’t-for-whatever-reason front, legislation exists that would prohibit members of Congress from trading stocks. It’s called the Banning Insider Trading in Congress Act and it would prohibit members of Congress and their spouses from trading individual stocks.

For those who live in a sane world wallpapered in logic, this proposal makes perfect sense. Why? Because currently lawmakers can pass legislation that creates favorable conditions for certain companies or industries, and if a lawmaker knows that this legislation will pass, he or she could profit off it.

Now more eyes are turning to Paul Pelosi, the House speaker’s husband. From a trading perspective, he’s like the real-life version of Gordon Gekko from the 1987 Oliver Stone classic “Wall Street.” His portfolio has substantially outperformed the S&P 500. In 2020 alone, a year when the stock market was as turbulent as in any year in recent memory thanks to COVID-19 shutdowns, Paul outperformed the S&P 500 by 14.3 percent, according to Hawley’s office. And per a New York Post analysis, the Pelosis have made approximately $30 million from trades involving Big Tech companies the House speaker is responsible for regulating.

[b]google says Joyce is worth an estimated $8 million.[/b]

Google says Nancy Pelosi is worth between $112 million and $251 million, and her husband makes money off shady deals with businesses Nancy is in charge of “regulating.”

No one is claiming Joyce or Joel are not wealthy. They are. pp claimed that religious leaders are more wealthy by passing the plate. Joyce Meyer has written over 100 books.

So the pp was wrong. Political figures have more wealth than religious figures.

That's impossible. Her Gulfstream alone is worth $10 million, and her several $2 million dollar homes - gotta wonder if there is some fishy accounting there somewhere. No wonder the IRS investigated her[/quote]
