> On January 26, 2012, Senator Joe Lieberman introduced the
STOCK Act that would prohibit the use of non-public information
for private profit, including insider trading by members of
Congress and other government employees. The bill was passed by
the Senate with only Senators Richard Burr, Jeff Bingaman, and
Tom Coburn voting against it. The House of Representatives voted
to approve of the bill and it was signed into law by President
Barack Obama on April 4, 2012.[1]

> China 'not to blame' for African debt crisis, it's the West:
study
> ...
> African countries owe three times more debt to Western banks,
asset managers and oil traders than to China, and are charged
double the interest, according to a study released on Monday by
British campaign charity Debt Justice.
>
> This is despite the growing accusations by the US and other
Western countries that China's lending is behind the debt
troubles faced by some African countries.
>
> The study said just 12 per cent of the continent's external
debt was owed to Chinese lenders, compared to 35 per cent owed
to Western private creditors, according to calculations based on
World Bank data.
> ...
> Interest rates charged on private loans were almost double
those on Chinese loans, while the most indebted countries were
less likely to have their debt dominated by China, the study
found. The average interest rate on private sector loans is 5
per cent, compared to 2.7 per cent on loans from Chinese public
and private lenders.
> ...
> Debt Justice policy head Tim Jones said Western leaders blamed
China for debt crises in Africa, "but this is a distraction".
>
> "The truth is their own banks, asset managers and oil traders
are far more responsible but the G7 are letting them off the
hook."
