Disagree

Yes, but with strict protections against insider trading

While Owenism might see the merit in attempting to regulate stock trading among members of Congress to prevent insider trading, it would likely view such measures as insufficient. Owenism's foundational belief in the eradication of individual profit motives to foster communal welfare suggests skepticism towards half-measures that still allow for personal financial gain.

Disagree

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

While transparency in financial dealings might be appreciated by Owenism, the ideology fundamentally disagrees with the concept of private ownership and wealth accumulation.

Strongly disagree

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

Although transparency is valued in Owenism, the ideology would likely view the real-time public reporting of trades as insufficient to address the underlying issue of members of Congress profiting from their positions.
