Does Anyone Understand What It Means to Be Ethical? (NOT Political)

"Do the Right Thing" is my office motto (see that saying on our card holders in our office.) and the over riding philosophy in my office.

In 2013 Congress forced itself to observe the same rules that you and I have to follow. You can't buy stock on inside information that your brother in law gave you about the company that he works for...Similarly, members of Congress cannot buy stock based on information that they learn about a company during hearings or investigations....Seems fair to me.

So the man who wants to be the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Tom Price, a Congressman, has some pretty shady dealings in his recent past according to CNN:

On January 16, 2017, CNN reported that Price had purchased shares in Zimmer Biomet, a medical devices company. Less than a week after the stock purchase, Price introduced legislation, the HIP Act, that would delay a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services regulation until 2018. Industry analysts had warned that those regulations would significantly hurt the company's finances. Following the introduction of the HIP Act, Zimmer Biomet's political action committee made a donation to Price's reelection campaign.^[63]

And did you know that the Congressman sits on the Congressional ETHICS COMMITTEE?

I am sorry but if you don't know right from wrong, what the hell are you doing writing laws for the rest of us to follow?

Maybe it's just me.
