in the late 1990s, members of the Senate earned 12 percent more than the average investor. A more recent study of House members found a 6 percent annual advantage.

The thing is, insider trading is perfectly legal.  Congress passed a law indemnifying them from that, and a lot of other crimes.  No transcript available yet, but may be up in a few days.  If you have the time, listen to the show.

So obviously you run for congress, work the lobbyists for money and trading tips, make your fortune, then retire to a foriegn country so you will not have to pay taxes.

It's the American way.......
