Discuss the role that elites play in politics and policy making
Elites are business leaders, political operatives, professional spokespeople, prominent fundraisers, and others whose social, economic, or occupational positions provide them more "weight" in politics than a typical person. Policies and laws favoring industry over people or protecting some groups of people while not protecting others are the result of "normal" politics in which elites hold sway over the decision-making process. Also, many local public health decisions are a result of the elites discussing a problem among themselves and then working through the solutions without involving other citizens.
