Theories of American Politics: Elites, Interest Groups, and Average Citizens”, in

for 1,779 policy issues indicates that economic elites and organized groups
representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S.
government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have
little or no independent influence.
