Liberalism

Strongly agree

Yes, but with strict protections against insider trading

This answer aligns well with liberalism's emphasis on individual freedom and economic liberty while also addressing concerns about conflicts of interest and insider trading. By allowing members of Congress to trade stocks with strict protections against insider trading, liberals can support both economic freedom and government transparency.

Strongly agree

Yes, as long as their trades are publicly reported in real time

This answer aligns with liberalism's emphasis on transparency and individual freedom. By requiring members of Congress to publicly report their trades in real time, the public can monitor their actions and hold them accountable for any potential conflicts of interest or insider trading. This approach allows for economic freedom while promoting government transparency and accountability.

Agree

No, and their investments should be held in a blind trust

Requiring members of Congress to hold their investments in a blind trust is a compromise position that many liberals may support. This approach allows elected officials to maintain their investments while minimizing the potential for conflicts of interest and insider trading. However, some liberals may view this as an unnecessary restriction on individual freedom and economic liberty.

Agree

No

Some liberals may support a complete ban on stock trading by members of Congress to prevent conflicts of interest and insider trading. However, this position may be seen as too restrictive by others who believe in economic freedom and individual rights. A complete ban might be seen as an overreach by the government into the personal lives of elected officials.

Slightly agree

No, and do more to prevent insider trading by their friends and family

While some liberals may support efforts to prevent insider trading by friends and family of members of Congress, this answer does not directly address the issue of whether members themselves should be allowed to trade stocks. As such, it may not be a primary concern for many liberals, who may prioritize individual freedom and economic liberty over additional restrictions on friends and family members.

Disagree

Yes

Liberalism generally supports individual freedom and economic liberty, but allowing members of Congress to trade stocks without restrictions could lead to conflicts of interest and insider trading. While some liberals may argue for their right to trade stocks, the potential for corruption and abuse of power would likely outweigh this argument for many.
