Via a website called ProCon.org we stumbled upon, we hereby provide you with more information than you knew even existed and more than you will ever need on the subject: “Should insider trading by Congress be prohibited?”
ProCon.org is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit public charity with the mission of “Promoting education, critical thinking, and informed citizenship by presenting controversial issues in a straightforward, nonpartisan primarily pro-con format.” For reasons only known to ProCon.org, it has decided that the above question should be among the 15 controversial issues it currently profiles on its site along with the death penalty, euthanasia, the war in Iraq, etc.
