If you're so confident I'm wrong, why is it so hard for you to quote me being wrong?

I'm on St Croix right now. But you probably think I'm lying. Buccaneer beach is nice and windy. Went out to Buck Island on Friday and Sandy Point yesterday.

I have been. Very much. Just chilling on the beach now enjoying the breeze. Fiance is reading a book so I figured I'd see what was up here. Saw an interesting video so I posted a thread about the subject.

Again, all you can look at is the title. You still havent read the OP. Explain to me how I am wrong. Congressman can invest and shape laws which impact their investments. That was the entire premise. And that is technically insider trading.

We both sat in coach. Delta mistake fare for $80 RT. Did I make you mad? Why are you engaging in personal attacks? Is it because you're wrong? Where have I heard that logic before? Hypocrite.
And I let her have it the first time only one of us could get it, then we switch off. Its a good system. Before I would refuse it and we both sat in the back. But we fly so much and travel together just the 2 of us, it makes sense to take the upgrade.

ETA: So I was correct when I posted earlier that you don't know what the definition of "insider trading" is....

Lol you actually found my post in another thread and tried to talk shite about me based on that using incorrect assumptions. Yep. I win. You lose. Have a nice day.

There's your answer. The electorate keeps voting these crooks back in office. The morally bankrupt politicians then use their legislative power (and influence) to vote themselves (and their stooges) sweet deals.
Want to know the bad news? It's getting worse. Believe the cancer is called socialism.
Have a great day!

Loosely interpreted, yeah I'd say you could call it that. I think you can also loosely interpret insider trading to define it as well. Either way, are we arguing about semantics? Can we at least agree on the principle here? That Congress passing laws that impact their investments is wrong?
Posted on 2/10/19 at 12:22 pm to LSURussian
I know plenty of people who do this. Not sad at all. You sound jealous.

No, it's technically not. You are being made to look silly in this thread. So the answer to your thread title:

is: they aren't. Go back to the beach...I promise that's more enjoyable

Why would I be jealous of you making your fiance sit in coach??

Not sad at all.
