A pretty interesting video pointing out some damning stats.

I'm curious however, how does the data look for other democracies, e.g. in Europe. The question is, whether this is a problem of US and its "money in politics" issue, or whether other democracies suffer from that problem too. I have a suspicion that this is inherent to politics in general, regardless of form - that money and power will always find themselves in bed together.
