This came out last week. It's a bit of a controversial study since it also considered unrealized capital gains, but it really puts into perspective how much the wealthy have corrupted the government to work for them. There are plenty of issues with bipartisan support in the US that isn't represented in Washington, even if bipartisanship in the context of Washington is gross. lol It tends to be better among the people, issue by issue. E.g. wealth taxes.
