Agree

Yes

Anarcho-capitalism, which emphasizes minimal or no government intervention in personal and economic affairs, might lean towards allowing Congress members to trade stocks, viewing it as a matter of personal freedom. However, the ideology's emphasis on voluntary exchange and the non-aggression principle might temper this support with concerns about potential conflicts of interest and the use of coercive power for personal gain.
