a few years ago i saw an article about how their portfolios get better returns than people convicted of insider trading...
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162- ... -congress/
i think feinstien is the worst, if i recall she got like 12% returns over market average (the report that that link links to now costs 50 bucks to access or something obnoxious)
frankly, the bill by the former senator from massachucetts wouldn't have gone far enough. i think these servants should at least have to put everything in blind trust for as long as they are a member of congress, and subsist on their meager 175K a year

I wonder if there's a Congressman that has less than $1 million.
Poor guy.
