A member of Congress could literally bet on their own vote and profit 10x. A White House aide could bet on a tariff decision before it’s announced. Theres ZERO oversight. This isn’t innovation, it’s legalized insider trading on democracy itself. Ban Kalshi politics

Kalshi Is a Corruption Time Bomb—and Congress Is Sitting on It
A platform that lets insiders (and legislators) gamble on their own behavior is a threat to democracy.

The vicious cycle of monopolization:
1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.

Labor will need to be dragged to action. We were heartbreakingly close to minority government last election, but thanks to the LNP fucking up so badly and distributing to Labor we've lost that opportunity for probably a couple of election cycles.

This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.
