    Carter sold his family’s peanut farm.

    Legislators, members of governments and their households should either be forbidden from doing insider trading, with regular detailed audits to ensure it, or should be forced to use blind trusts for investments.

      I wish more people could have been like Carter. He wasn’t perfect, far from it, but he was a legend given the time period and how he spent his later years.

      Minor nitpick, he didn’t sell it, he put it in a blind trust. He still owned it, just didn’t control it.
