George Soros v Koch Brothers
Since some of us have been or are going to be snowed in let's discuss.

Let's dicuss the Pro's and Con's (pardon the pun) of each. They have become caricatures in our Political dialogue. But do we know why they are good/bad?
Enjoy

Should be Soros/Steyer vs. Kochs

Or maybe Soros/Steyer/Unions vs Kochs

Yeah, that's the white stuff Bing Crosby sings about. Perhaps you've heard of it?

Best 2 of 3 falls. No holds barred. And the losers have to leave the country.

Aren't the Koch brothers libertarians and American citizens?

That's better than a socialist/communist foreigner.

The Koch Brothers sound like a bunch of ********.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch_family_foundations

Quote:The Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation funds college study groups called Koch Scholars who gather and read "an assortment of select books, movies, and podcasts surrounding the principles of a free society." Such groups exist at the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business at Utah State University and the University of Alaska Fairbanks. As of 2014, the Charles Koch Foundation has given grants to almost 300 colleges and universities, per their website.

In 2014, the Kochs made a $25 million grant to the United Negro College Fund (UNCF). In protest of the Kochs, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, a major labor union, ended its annual $50,000–$60,000 support for the UNCF.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_a...ATRIOT_Act
Quote:The Koch brothers each made $10 million grants to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to fight the Bush administration over the PATRIOT Act.[55][56] According to Reason magazine that $20 million is "substantially more than the Kochs have contributed to all political candidates combined for at least the last 15 years."
