Calling the Liberal Lurkers to come out and read this.

Before you lurking liberals disregard this article because they donate to the right side of the aisle, please remember this.

George Solos as a youngster stole from his fellow Jewish people and gave their possessions to the Nazis. During the 1997 Asian financial crisis, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohamad accused him of bringing down the nation’s currency through his trading activities, and in Thailand he was called an “economic war criminal.” Known as “The Man who Broke the Bank of England,” Soros initiated a British financial crisis by dumping 10 billion sterling, forcing the devaluation of the currency and gaining a billion-dollar profit. In 1998, he wrote this about the US: “Insofar as there are collective interests that transcend state boundaries, the sovereignty of states must be subordinated to international law and international institutions.”

Warren Buffett while claiming he wants the rich in the US to pay more in taxes was in court with the IRS in 2011 to avoid having to pay a billion dollars in back taxes and he just pulled off another trick to get out of paying hundreds of millions in taxes for 2013.

Both these two gentlemen are donating millions to fund Democrat campaigns. They both supported a guy that told Americans if you like your insurance you can keep your insurance, which was awarded the LIE OF THE YEAR AWARD by a Leftwing fact checker. The same guy that has a very Liberal Professor going to the Congress and warning them about his Unconstitutional over reach that is threatening the three equal branches of the US Government.

If they are true to their leftwing support they will be donating millions to Hillary Clinton, that told the Congress, “What difference does it make”, when she was asked about her blaming a video protest for Benghazi, that through countless investigations we now know she knew it was a LIE as the video had nothing to do with Benghazi and US CIA Intel proves it never did. The deaths of those four brave Americans was caused by Hillary’s incompetence at providing requested Security when Terrorists hit the Consulate. But it could not be publicly known it was a terrorist attack as Obama was running his 2012 campaign on the idea, he had the terrorists on the run, hence the Video lie backed up by the arrest and perp walk of the video producer.

Please remember this about the Koch Brothers, George Soros and Warren Buffet when you listen to Harry Reid stand up in the Senate and demean a family that provides tens of thousands of jobs to the struggling US economy. The same Harry Reid that stood on the Senate floor and called all the Obamacare horror stories LIES made up by the Koch Brothers and when there was a backlash to his Senate comments he came back out and claimed he never said all of them were lies. To bad for Harry, during his attempted character assassination of the Koch Bros. he forgot about the Video that proved exactly what he said. :roll:

Charles Koch: I'm Fighting to Restore a Free Society
Instead of welcoming free debate, collectivists engage in character assassination
Charles G. Koch
Updated April 2, 2014 7:47 p.m. ET
I have devoted most of my life to understanding the principles that enable people to improve their lives. It is those principles—the principles of a free society—that have shaped my life, my family, our company and America itself.

Unfortunately, the fundamental concepts of dignity, respect, equality before the law and personal freedom are under attack by the nation's own government. That's why, if we want to restore a free society and create greater well-being and opportunity for all Americans, we have no choice but to fight for those principles. I have been doing so for more than 50 years, primarily through educational efforts. It was only in the past decade that I realized the need to also engage in the political process.

A truly free society is based on a vision of respect for people and what they value. In a truly free society, any business that disrespects its customers will fail, and deserves to do so. The same should be true of any government that disrespects its citizens. The central belief and fatal conceit of the current administration is that you are incapable of running your own life, but those in power are capable of running it for you. This is the essence of big government and collectivism.

More than 200 years ago, Thomas Jefferson warned that this could happen. "The natural progress of things," Jefferson wrote, "is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground." He knew that no government could possibly run citizens' lives for the better. The more government tries to control, the greater the disaster, as shown by the current health-care debacle. Collectivists (those who stand for government control of the means of production and how people live their lives) promise heaven but deliver hell. For them, the promised end justifies the means.

Instead of encouraging free and open debate, collectivists strive to discredit and intimidate opponents. They engage in character assassination. (I should know, as the almost daily target of their attacks.) This is the approach that Arthur Schopenhauer described in the 19th century, that Saul Alinsky famously advocated in the 20th, and that so many despots have infamously practiced. Such tactics are the antithesis of what is required for a free society—and a telltale sign that the collectivists do not have good answers.

Rather than try to understand my vision for a free society or accurately report the facts about Koch Industries, our critics would have you believe we're "un-American" and trying to "rig the system," that we're against "environmental protection" or eager to "end workplace safety standards." These falsehoods remind me of the late Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan's observation, "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Here are some facts about my philosophy and our company:

Koch companies employ 60,000 Americans, who make many thousands of products that Americans want and need. According to government figures, our employees and the 143,000 additional American jobs they support generate nearly $11.7 billion in compensation and benefits. About one-third of our U.S.-based employees are union members.

Koch employees have earned well over 700 awards for environmental, health and safety excellence since 2009, many of them from the Environmental Protection Agency and Occupational Safety and Health Administration. EPA officials have commended us for our "commitment to a cleaner environment" and called us "a model for other companies."

Our refineries have consistently ranked among the best in the nation for low per-barrel emissions. In 2012, our Total Case Incident Rate (an important safety measure) was 67% better than a Bureau of Labor Statistics average for peer industries. Even so, we have never rested on our laurels. We believe there is always room for innovation and improvement.

Far from trying to rig the system, I have spent decades opposing cronyism and all political favors, including mandates, subsidies and protective tariffs—even when we benefit from them. I believe that cronyism is nothing more than welfare for the rich and powerful, and should be abolished.

Koch Industries was the only major producer in the ethanol industry to argue for the demise of the ethanol tax credit in 2011. That government handout (which cost taxpayers billions) needlessly drove up food and fuel prices as well as other costs for consumers—many of whom were poor or otherwise disadvantaged. Now the mandate needs to go, so that consumers and the marketplace are the ones who decide the future of ethanol.

Instead of fostering a system that enables people to help themselves, America is now saddled with a system that destroys value, raises costs, hinders innovation and relegates millions of citizens to a life of poverty, dependency and hopelessness. This is what happens when elected officials believe that people's lives are better run by politicians and regulators than by the people themselves. Those in power fail to see that more government means less liberty, and liberty is the essence of what it means to be American. Love of liberty is the American ideal.

If more businesses (and elected officials) were to embrace a vision of creating real value for people in a principled way, our nation would be far better off—not just today, but for generations to come. I'm dedicated to fighting for that vision. I'm convinced most Americans believe it's worth fighting for, too.

Mr. Koch is chairman and CEO of Koch Industries.

Big bad Koch Bros. give a fraction of the money deep pocket dems give but they are the ones being accused of buying the elections. :roll: :mad:

Hillary also thought, "It takes a villiage to raise a child" - only if the parents are incompetent. It takes more than a village to pay for the unchecked free welfare system.

Your lurking liberals have run out of kleenex. They aren't sounding off here near as much as they used to.

As long as the left is allowed to use HYPOCRISY they will trudge on. The media is so invested in the left that they don't care. And the leftwinger followers are to stupid to see they are in chains
