Sen. Elizabeth Warren's new reform bill would ban members of Congress from owning individual stocks
* Sen. Elizabeth Warren proposes a new bill that would ban members of Congress and the White House staff from owning individual stocks.
* As an apparent alternative, the legislation would create "conflict-free investment opportunities for federal officials with new investment accounts."
* While the measure is unlikely to pass the Senate as long as Republicans hold majority control of the chamber, it comes amid speculation that Warren could run for president in 2020.

What fraction of what she realistically expects to get through (assuming there is some) would she see as victory, or even as a victory of sorts, i wonder.
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
