A news article two years ago said the average return an investor gets from the stock market is 3%. Yet, for the last few decades, the average return elected officials in Congress and the Senate recieve is 12%. Yet, they are protected from insider trading rules, OSHA regs, and other constraints impeding citizens from making money. Tim Pawlenty, one time candidate for President and then a Romney election aid is becoming a lobbyist.
We need to make it illegal for these elected officials to use their inside knowledge to help lobbyists abuse the system in the stock market or as lobbyists.
Joe Heller has been the staff editorial cartoonist for the Green Bay Press-Gazette since 1985. His cartoons appear in more than 350 publications, making him the most self-syndicated cartoonist in the nation.

Didn’t work. Even the replacement refs appeared to be interested.

The replacement refs don’t have to be re-elected.

And the replacement refs didn’t even get the kickbacks from corporations and lobbyists to fall back on
