Which of the following best describes a political system dominated by a powerful, accomplished group of highly influential people who use their money and position to deeply influence and control government policy?

Answer 1

A political system that is dominated by a powerful, accomplished group of highly influential people who use their money and position to deeply influence and control government policy can be called a lobby.

Explanation:

• Lobbyists are basically the people who are rich and support certain political parties financially for them to win the elections and get the mandate.
• Once these parties get the mandate, the lobbyists expect the party leaders to make decisions that would favor them and their institutions.
• Though lobbying is deemed illegal, there is no solid mechanism existent that would restrict lobbying completely.
