Nancy Pelosi has folded and reluctantly agreed to support legislation banning stock trading by members of Congress. This is great news for everyday Americans, but bad news for Pelosi, who has gained outrageous wealth during her time in Congress.Â

Just weeks ago, a reporter asked Pelosi, "should members of congress and their spouses be banned from trading individual stocks while serving in Congress?"Â
Â
Her response was a terse, "NO."Â
