  • Fat cat is a political term originally describing a rich political donor, also called an angel or big-money man. The New York Times has described fat cats as symbols of "a deeply corrupt campaign finance system riddled with loopholes", with Americans seeing them as recipients of the "perks of power", but able to "buy access, influence policy and even veto appointments". It is also commonly used to describe a rich, greedy person who, due to ownership of large amounts of capital, is able to "live easy" off the work of others. In the United Kingdom, it is also used to refer to executives whose pay is deemed by others to be excessive. (en)
  • Fat cat (lett. Gatto grasso, detto anche angel e big money man) è un termine inglese di natura politica. In origine indicava un ricco politico che dona parte del suo patrimonio con lo scopo primario di ottenere fama e prestigio per il suo gesto, ma oggigiorno viene usato per indicare una persona ricca ed avara che, grazie al suo grosso patrimonio, "vive facilmente" sulle spalle degli altri. Nel Regno Unito, il termine è anche usato per riferirsi ai dirigenti il cui stipendio è considerato eccessivo. Il New York Times ha descritto i fat cat come simbolo di "un sistema di finanziamento delle campagne elettorali pieno di scappatoie", con i cittadini statunitensi che li vedono come ricettacolo per i "giochi di potere" e capaci di "comprare l'accesso, influenzare la politica e persino porre dei veti".
