“The idea that a relatively fixed group of privileged people might shape the economy and government for their own benefit goes against the American grain. Nevertheless, the owners and top-level managers in large income-producing properties are far and away the dominant power figures in the United States. Their corporations, banks, and agribusinesses come together as a corporate community that dominates the federal government in Washington. Their real estate, construction, and land development companies form growth coalitions that dominate most local governments.” PeopleIdeasRealStatesGovernmentMightTogetherFormGrowthCommunityLevelsUnitedCompanyUnited StatesEconomyGroupsLandFiguresDevelopmentShapesBenefitsPropertyIncomeLocalsManagersCorporateCorporationsFixedOwnersConstructionGrainNeverthelessDominantEstatesPrivilegedFederal GovernmentCoalitionsLocal GovernmentAgribusiness Author:G.
