Should Members of Congress and their spouses?

be allowed to own stocks while in office? They are able to vote in ways that give them inside information on policies that will effect their investments (for the better or worse) and therefore are involved in a form of legislative insider trading. Should they be allowed to do so or should they have to sell these holdings when elected?
