Answer: The government is more influenced by the economic elites than by average citizens when changing US public policy.
Explanation:
From the graph, it is shown that U.S. public policy is more likely to change if it is the preference of the economic elites than the average citizen. This is shown by the curve indicating the probability of policy being adopted being more sensitive to support from economic elites.
Considering that the economic elites donate more noticeable funds to election campaigns, it enables them to push their agenda amongst politicians leading to more of their preferential policies being adopted.
