Abstract: Since we assume that larger corporations will have more influence in public policy than smaller corporations, we narrow our focus to the largest 500 corporations (by revenue) for all corporate fiscal years 2012 to 2016.1 In selecting our population of corporations, we rely upon the Standard & Poor’s Compustat database. We only include corporations headquartered in the U.S. that are traded on a major stock exchange.2 We then drop any company that was never in the S&P 1500. This leaves us with 553 corporations that were among the largest 500 corporations for at least one year . . .
