Making Congress a part-time body will do nothing if you don't prevent them exempting themselves from the laws they pass for the rest of us such as engaging in insider trading.

Without doing that, all you will have accomplished is giving them even more time off to spend their millions they've made on the side.

The FULL TIME LAW required members of the House to give up outside employment.

The previous PART TIME status of Congress allowed its members to pursue their trades, crafts and professions.

You get one or you get the other.

Insider Trading is one of those crimes we've allowed to be created by prohibiting the normal functioning of free markets.
