The conclusions that can be drawn from the data about the relationship between public opinion and the  adoption of public policy is:

The government is more influenced by the economic elites than by average citizens when changing US public policy.

Explanation:

The economic elites are naturally more outspoken than the average American citizen.  Based on their general exposure, knowledge, and skills, they are also more believable when they express their opinions on public policy than the average US citizen.  This is the reason that they can be influential in cornering public policy towards their opinions.  The average citizen can only act in groups to be heard, unlike the elites, who are already well-known in government circles.
