The Center of Public Integrity (USA) published a detailed list of companies which made contracts with the american government. This list shows involvements in donations to the government and personal ties with it. In their article they write: "Those companies donated more money to the presidential campaigns of George W. Bush (a little over $500,000) than to any other politician over the last dozen years, the Center found. Nearly 60 percent of the companies had employees or board members who either served in or had close ties to the executive branch for Republican and Democratic administrations, for members of Congress of both parties, or at the highest levels of the military."
