This chart has a bit of a political lean, I didn't make it, but In reality one could easily find as many republicans as democrats participating in this, as regulatory capture is endemic to the American political, lobbying, and regulatory systems. These are just a few examples in a system that is saturated with it.

But just take a minute and actually look through the list. You probably will see something that will blow your mind about how corrupt this stuff is.

It does have a political lean but it doesn’t change facts. I would love to see one that shows the crossover during President Trumps administration. I’ll look into it.

Yeah this was made during Obama's early years I think. So it's like 10 years old. But still relevant as heck

It’s more discreet now which could be a good thing or a bad thing I suppose.
