Mapping the Corporate Occupation of US Government

I am not aware of the source of this graphic, nor have I researched the veracity of the claims it presents. This came to me in an email from an unknown source. But having observed our government and taxes at work for the corporate oligarchy all these years, this expresses the essence of what I've come to know about why and how we are denied meaningful and democratic participation in the decisions which impact our lives in the so-called 'land of the free'. In case you had any doubt how it came to be that there is a 99% whose labor and wealth are stolen by the 1%, take a moment to review this, please. An image, worthy of at least a thousand words, surely. But I will let it speak for itself.
