Sorry...this is all Dhimmicrat wet-dreams. Is C19Fan a cloaked Dhimmi?

This URINALIST at Politico is dreaming up scenarios that DO NOT and WILL NEVER exist.

The Koch Brothers run a conglomerate/corporate concern; they will provide financial advancement for that concern. Included within that concern is the impact of regulation and, correspondingly, that impact on shareholder value. THAT SIMPLE CONCEPT is what drives the Koch Brothers in the political world.

They will NOT audition politicians in exchange for their corporate favors.

FReepers should not fall for this line of BOVINE SCATOLOGY.

Run away...run FAR away...

Very perceptive post - and very true. Review the donations of any major commercial entity, and you will likely find a rough parity between the recipients of the two parties. Like you say, it is all about impact on value and who can influence it.

That said, however, I always find it amusing around FR that most FReepers complain endlessly and bitterly about the bias of media, yet unquestioningly (and unfailingly) accept whatever premise, no matter how flawed or false, is advanced in a given media diatribe. A very weird dichotomy.
