Does It Matter What You Think About Gun Policy?

A recent study found no correlation between public opinion and what policies get enacted. Instead, it's the economic elite (and interest groups) who tend to get their way in American politics. Given the imbalance in influence, what does that mean for popular gun safety policies and the reach of the National Rifle Association? Northwestern University's Benjamin Page, who co-authored the study, explains why gun policy is an outlier and what hope there is for average Americans to reclaim their influence in the political process.
