Holders of any elected office, from President to Senator to county dog catcher, should be completely banned from owning any sort of stock, investment, or businesses.

You get to purchase US bonds. Thats it. In fact, you shouldn’t be allowed to own things once you’re done being in office either. If you’re ever found owning another kind of investment, 20 years in prison, no exceptions.

An elected official owning stocks or even worse, their own business, is pure corruption. It’s inherently corrupt, even if they are super well behaved about it.

Eh, it’s TECHNICALLY not a conflict of interest if its consistent with the overall U.S political establishment’s goals…

They dug a hole for themselves, to find more gold!
