I agree. Talking in such broad terms leaves a lot of holes. Since we’re talking pie in the sky stuff maybe:
have congressional service require divesting oneself of all past and future funds beyond X amount with the understanding that they have to have increased scrutiny in all financial matters- like no privacy. I can think of a lot of problems with this but could it be better than the current system? I don’t see how it couldn’t be a bit of an improvement over them making $174k and yet being hundreds millionaires from stock trading for themselves and family members over years of insider information.
