How involved are they in politics outside of their own State and what specifically have they done to draw all the left hate? Is it a George Soros type play to create a right wing super villain or legitimate?

They go all over.

They donated money to people fighting a tax levy for the Columbus Zoo this past cycle in Columbus, Ohio.

Idiots. Wealthy idiots. Ideological idiots.

Basically just idiots though.

I worked for a Koch owned company for six years. I did quite well and left when we were bought out by the Tisch brothers.

They were ahead of the game in the oil transportation business. They sold a ton of assets to avoid environmental litigation. Koch at one time was believed to be the price setter for WTI crude. Love them or hate them.......they are smart SOB's

Dislike how much money they throw into politics but that's true of leftists like Soros too. Very generous in giving in other arenas as well. That I support greatly. Obviously very bright guys. Been made into more of a boogeyman than they really are.
