As I recall… studies showing the US is an oligarchy, by comparing special interest lobbies being successfully voted into law, vs laws with general public support, and support of demographic sets of people (age/race/religion/sex etc)…
Those studies were coming out in like 2009, 2010.
2014, but yeah, a while ago.
I had not actually seen this specific study… I was getting a BA in Poli Sci and a BS in Econ from 07-11.
It’s been quite a while, I don’t remember specifically what papers I read, but I definitely read them, and got into arguments with my professors over them.
I am shocked! Shocked to hear this!
Stop the presses! No seriously, buy out the ownership of the newspapers and stop the presses so the riffraff don’t find out.
