Did you ever read about that? On average, members of Congress have a 16% higher return on stocks than the everyday average Joe Shmoe. Yeah, no insider trading there, yeah that`s the ticket. Meanwhile I lose my azz.

The last time I saw stats,: 70% of energy stocks are owned by pension funds. Most energy jobs are union. I rest my case.
