Charles is no "oligarch." Read that book, you'll see why.

Anyone who has billions of dollars and wields it to exert political leverage is an oligarch.

Nope. Anyone who *uses the State* to gain leverage is an oligarch. Charles ain't that. See here: http://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/koch-brothers-the-real-thing/ …

Charles uses the state. Are you kidding? He's hosting a confab full of politicians as we speak.

Nonsense. Charles supports legislation that costs him profits. Won't take state subsidies. Won't take favors.

Charles and David explicitly funded efforts in 2012 to help Romney beat Obama. That's using billions to influence the state.

Bull. It's self-defense. Or Charles' idea of it. You have an obligation to engage in politics to defend liberty.

The leftist demonology is BS- Charles is a pretty amazing guy. Even though I've been fighting his influence for a long time.

They are two of the richest people in the world and command an absurd level of political influence.
