No, scratch the surface of any issue today and you'll find a billionaire driving the issue.

And the Koch's are behind many.

Climate change denial
Oil and gas drilling
Funding of radical right-wing politicians
funding of radical right-wing think tanks like heritage, cato, etc.
Funding of radical right-wing front groups...astroturf groups like Americans for Prosperity, FreedomWorks, etc.

No, they're knee-deep in subverting democracy for their own personal profit. And they're John Birch Society nut cases to boot (their father was a founder). And Ayn Rand followers, I'm sure.

You need to stop giving them a free pass. A lot of people need to stop giving these people free passes. That's the problem with America today, they are being
bamboozled by guys like them and won't stand up to them.

And I don't give a fuck about Soros.

I still get a MAJOR kick out of all this "Koch is evil incarnate" stuff. Very Happy

The company I slaved for (not Koch) always made it clear who "they" thought the right candidate was, as well. Imagine that.

Koch has far less influence than the left leaning Koch will destroy us all fear mongers believe.

But now Soros, on the other hand, is A-OK....... Rolling Eyes

I know many, many folks that work for Koch. Secretaries to Presidents. Some of them embrace Charles' thoughts, some not so much.

As I've said before, I have one hundred times more fear of Goldman Sachs and their ilk than I ever would have for Koch. I'm pretty sure Koch had essentially nothing to do with bringing down the economy three years ago. Unlike Wall Street.

And the sad part is, it's most likely going to happen again, possibly before too long. And the Koch's won't have much of a hand in it again.

I wish folks on both sides (I'm neither, I am solidly loathing of both parties) would focus like a laser beam on Wall Street and the idiots in Washington that have been bought and sold by them.

D&O
