People need to realize only government officials get away with that blatant a degree of insider trading.

And it seems to be the trend among smaller betters to just follow big betters, because insider knowledge is assumed.

His error was not being a cabinet secretary first.

Is it governed by the SEC? Does our country have general “insider trading” gambling laws?
