They say it's divided among four power sources: Big lawyers (tort
lawyers); Big Green environmentalists; Big labor (roughly half of them
are government employees unions, but they have most of the power); and
Big Insiders (personal wealth and foundation grants). Not so much Big
Business per se; they still tend to hang with the Republicans.

Interesting rediscovery of a Marxist technique call
"Interest Group Analysis." AFAIK first developed/elaborated
in post WW1 Germany
