Thread: Where the Politicians invest their money and how much....

This is a place that you can find out just about everything you ever wanted to know about a politicina in the houe and senate. I have to use a code on individual querys.
The financial disclosures through the end of 2007 are available it looks like the 2008 have to be in by 05/15/09.

I think you can look them by their worth when they were elected vs. now.

For example:

This is a list of the members that had investments in AIG, the number so shares owned and the number bought and sold. Look around, there is a list of companies that our politicians have been invested in, travel. I am sure that the numbers had changed since 2007, but the investments are very telling.

Hmmmm.....they certainly seem to have "a thing" for AIG, don't they?

Probably explains the continual bailouts.

Well, I suppose if we look where the rats are hiding, wee little mice like us MIGHT stand something of a chance.
