Money is about power. People like Koch worship money and power.
We know that a "free market" doesn't work. We have seen that many many times. Nor do they believe in a free market. If they did, they wouldn't be telling republicans to pass laws to put others to a disadvantage. To make it harder for others to compete against themselves.
Isun, show us a "free market" and it is easy to show that it fact has been regulated. The claim that the free market has been tried many times and failed is false. Regulated markets have been tried many times and they fail. What is likely true is that all markets fail at one time or another.
Second, can you show that the Koch brothers are any greedier or hungry for power than anyone else? Can you show that the Koch brothers are evil because they do evil things or are they just "evil" because they don't think like you do?
You claiming the Koch brothers are greedy and hungry for power is just you trying to get people to hate the Koch brothers. You are a hate peddler.
Lols, No, just not blind to what is going on around me. I have never seen a party that is as exclusive as the republican party is today. Exclusivity throughout history has been the basis of wars and bigotry. The republican party doesn't even bother hiding their bigotry. They just accuse anyone that dares point it out of being bigots.
As to proving they are more greedier than anyone else? That would entail a very large set of data and quite frankly I suspect they would just deny they are greedy.
Greed is the desire to obtain far more than they need. And Koch brothers have far far far far more than they need.
But from a economic view and a democratic view, concentrated wealth is bad. Our economy is suffering under poor growth because of the concentrated wealth. Our democracy has been subverted to who has the most money. And that is all bad.
