American Politics is Getting All Koch’ed Up

The grassroots pressure group Americans for Prosperity (AFP), that actively fought health care reform, boasts "our citizen activists" are "the heart and soul" of the organization. So AFP wants the public and the media to believe. But an exhaustive report in the August 30, 2010 issue of The New Yorker magazine, shows that the heart and soul behind AFP are really the oil billionaire brothers David and Charles Koch of Koch Industries, whose privately-owned oil enterprise has made them among the richest men in America

Blood And Oil

This is the story of a blood feud, a battle between brothers. As we told you when we first reported this story last November, the Koch family of Wichita, Kansas is among the richest in the United States, worth billions of dollars. Their oil company, Koch Industries, is bigger than Intel, Dupont or Prudential Insurance, and they own it lock stock and barrel. The trouble is a former employee says the brother who controls the company grew rich through fraud and theft, stealing from the taxpayers of the United States

Profile of Koch brothers misguided

The author of the article obviously doesn t like the Kochs and, more importantly, doesn t like their politics, their privacy or their philanthropy. She portrays the Kochs as sinister figures hiding behind a plethora of companies and foundations and supporting political and social groups who oppose the liberal/progressive agenda. Undoubtedly, the purpose of the article is to be a wake-up call to the American public about the evil Koch family.

Democrats CanÂ’t Blame the Koch Brothers (However Much They Might Want To)

But think about that for a moment. The Kochs philanthropic dollars back research and advocacy efforts focused on getting government out of the business of running the economy. If they were truly interested in protecting their profits, they wouldn t be spending so much to shrink government; they d be looking for a bigger slice of the pie for themselves. Their funding is devoted to promoting free-market capitalism, not crony capitalism.

Boycott Koch Products

This will be short but sweet. It has been well-documented as to the creepy and anti-progressive policies that the Koch brothers support. Their major holdings are very difficult to boycott -- other than the promotion of clean energy and environmental laws, you may be stuck buying their energy products, directly or indirectly. However, they do produce some consumer products that you should put to memory to NEVER purchase again.

With an estimated net worth of $17.5 billion, Koch is the second-richest man in New York City, behind Michael Bloomberg. Across the room on the floor of his office sits a scale model of El Sarmiento, the sprawling yellow Addison Mizner designed mansion he owns in Palm Beach (the matching yellow biography of the house he commissioned rests nearby).
