Koch states they have been misrepresented in the media.

He states, "The American people have to understand what is fair and what makes their lives better." Of course a Koch would know.

Classical liberal is someone who wants a society that maximizes peace, civility and opportunity for everyone. Charles Koch states he is a classical liberal. Amazing. Classic liberals reach back in time to define themselves when oil sold for 39 cents a gallon and no one gave a damn about global warming. I think Classic Liberal goes back before the Vietnam War, too.

Government is suppose to have a vision of what kind of society will make people's lives better. The politicians in power are capable because they are so much smarter than everyone else, "fatal conceit" or the "tyranny of experts."

I am curious. Does he believe in democracy? Because there are elections and as a rule the American people choose a QUALIFIED candidate. What IQ does he think qualifies for President? I think we can start there. 

Charles Koch hates it that he doesn't run the country. That is why his money goes into purchasing politicians. His answer to redemption is so much better. How can a man be sentenced to hell if he spends his fortune in instilling his values throughout the land?

Oh, my, my there is a financial cliff coming. Did anyone know that? Let's see. Koch. Oh, yeah fossil fuels, right? The financial cliff is coming faster under Democrats than Republicans. Interesting. Democrats wants to roll back oil subsidies and is investing in solar and wind.

$300 million on the elections of 2016. I guess Charles and his brother decided to trim their sales a bit. $300 million rather than $900 million. This is a private company, so it is difficult to know if the company is tanking.

Not every donor is willing to have their names out because of the death threats. Good excuse if it is real. I doubt every donor get death threats. I never have.

Koch is 79 years old. He feels a passion for what we are trying to do. It is his nature to work until death does he part. The road to happiness is to fully develop one's abilities and then practice is forever.

This is the last words of Charles Koch father when he left them his money. "If you choose to let this money destroy you...then my decision to give it to you was a mistake...." I think the father was right.
