1、国家政治才将其提上议程重心。

But only now it is becoming to dominate political agenda.

2、美国政治体系不像许多人以为的那样僵化、受制于精英富人,这是一件好事儿

although it is good to know that the U.S. political system is less ossified and less in thrall to monies elites than many assumed

ossified:僵化

monies, elites: 精英富人

3、一经采纳，会扼制增长、加剧痼疾，让局面变得更糟

exacerbate malaise: 加剧痼疾

恩，不管怎么样，明天发个邮件问问说法。
