No, most corporations donate heavily to the Dem side of things.

The influence is used to limit competition. Who does Buffet support? Gates? Apple? What does their support buy them?

The Unions are small fry on the national scale

Actually, unions are the biggest financial special interest group of all. Much of it is government unions, but also AFL CIO and Teamsters etc.

I’d put Mark Zuckerburg in that mix too, you know the CEO of FACEBOOK, which is teamed up with the Fox debates?

Don’t forget that Unions manage large pension funds which invest in corporations, makes them somewhat larger fry.
