And who makes up the government that writes and votes on these laws? And who uses their money to influence the people in these positions?

My guess is the upper class of FTE works in the top 1/5 of the population? Although, maybe it's more apt to say the 1% or 0.1% who are not workers?

Does the author include the business owners and elites in their top 1/5 of the population? Or are they a different subset as they are not workers?
