My message here is that banning trading isn't going to stop politicians from acting corrupt. In both cases their power is too great and their greed is insatiable. I think Stalin had some good ideas on how to handle corrupt politicians.
It's like playing defence in basketball. You out pressure on them and make scoring as hard as possible. It will dissuade some percentage from participating, and the more barriers there are the more people will not consider the effort worth it.
I mean, short of a needed complete government overthrow, if we can make things harder to be corrupt, then why not
