Koch brothers to spend $900 million on 2016 elections

[pbrower2a]

American democracy dies if the Koch family gets its way.

I don't get why the Kochs are Satan for making contributions, but all the leftist groups get a free pass.

"Leftist" groups don't have that sort of money. 

[pbrower2a]

Would you rather the Koch brothers merely keep the money for themselves?

Yes. I would rather that they built castles for themselves and whole counties as hunting preserves for themselves. By buying the political process the Koch family establishes tyranny far worse than what George III ever imposed upon American colonists.

Liberals are mad because money in politics. But didn't they just spend more money in the 2014 election cycle and get pummeled?

Also, this elitist notion that the Kochs "buy" elections is getting old, as if people don't decide for themselves, they just vote based on what advertisements say.

It's the Orwellian propaganda that Americans for Prosperity (a Koch front group) belches out into the media that debases democracy.

They want a pure plutocracy with no libertarian claptrap about free markets. They want America to be a land of high prices, low wages, brutal management, and no economic security except for a rapacious elite. Freedom means the right of elites to command and the duty of others to suffer for the greed of the elites.

It's the Marxist stereotype of capitalist plutocracy.
