The better question is why did this stupid idea take hold so unquestioningly on this website in the first place.

http://www.ihr.org/leaflets/jewishlobby.shtml

Jews are only three percent of the nation’s population and com­prise eleven percent of what this study defines as the nation’s elite.

The study checked against the "elite", not kikes. What the hell is the definition of "elite" to them. Even your own figures show massive overrepresentation.

Knowing how this works elites would be media personnel, civil servants, labor leaders, military brass, corporate CEOs, members of Congress, etc. Jews came in at 11% of the total.

So they diluted the results by including tons of other people whom nobody would really consider elites.

The overrepresentation narrative is of course bankrupt. If you're 10% of the elite it doesn't matter in terms of determining who's actually in control if you're overrepresented. You're still 10%. As a form of illustration Catholics are slightly underrepresented in American elites but are some 20% of the total. It'd be facile to contend Roman Catholics dominate the US - but one could make a more solid case for it than for Jews.

Members of Congress aren't elites?

CryptoBard ago

The primary influencers, pushing and pulling the levers of society, Sadly, Congress takes a back seat, when it comes to media and information control, and they're still massively overrepresented in congress too.

Jews are about 10% of Congress.
