Here is a link to the Wikipedia Entry on the DVD
Koch Brothers Exposed
Some of the alleged wrongdoing highlighted in the film includes:
Efforts to gut Social Security. Spending more than $28 million, the Kochs have funded hundreds of reports, commentaries and books which popularized the fiction that Social Security is on the brink of collapse.[7]
Attempts at re-segregation. The film reports on Koch-funded efforts to remake a North Carolina school district’s diversity policy, in effect re-segregating the schools.[7]
Voter Suppression. Koch money has supported voter ID laws in 38 states.[8] These laws are billed as a way to avoid voter fraud, but the film argues that they are actually intended to make it more difficult for Democrats to vote.[1]
Keystone XL. The Kochs use their influence to sway legislation regarding the Keystone XL pipeline. Koch Industries has a significant financial interest in this oil and gas project.[7]
Cancer in Crosset. A Koch paper plant pollutes the air and water of a community in Arkansas. The film explores a link with a cancer cluster in the small African-American community.[9]
Higher Education. The Kochs give millions of dollars to universities, with the stipulation that the schools must hire Koch-sympathetic professors.[7]
Robert Greenwald attempts to evoke a visceral reaction from his viewers by telling the stories of individuals whose lives have been harmed by Koch activities.[10] Regarding this film, he is quoted as saying, “You reach the heart first. What I always try to do is make the political personal." [1]
The Koch Brothers are guilty of disagreeing with the Democrats and having the money to fight them.

Oh so they agree with me on everything, must be evil then.
and no, I don't remember a Republican caucus leader EVER going after a private citizen on the floor of the Senate like reid did, but then reid is scum isn't he?
If you are a lib then you are equal to reid, schumer, pelosi, etc. That's why you are scum too.

Fine by me. It's a drain on our resources.

LOLOLOLOL. Sure... That's their goal.

Democrats who don't want voter ID are fricking stupid. Sorry, but you are. Just stop and think. What reason would ANYONE have for not showing an ID when voting? What's that? They can't afford one? Well... Tell me. How do you get on welfare without an ID?

Good. It's a good project.

As opposed to the usual free society haters?

Yeah. Cause no one has been affected by any company decisions, ever.

And there's your answer. That's what it all comes down to my friends.
The Koch's, like the Unions or George Soro's use their money to influence those in charge of making decisions.
Nothing more, nothing less.

Dumbfricks are going to dumbfrick down the parade route of idiots. Compare your list to those of unions and other left leaning groups for a comparison for their beliefs and the quantity of money spent by them and you will find out the truth about who throws more money around. Social Security is going broke because Democrats (my bad that should fifty not forty)years ago started taking the money from it and spending it in the general fund budget, never have the "loans" been paid back in that time.

Indeed.
And, in the Totalitarian Stalinist worldview of today's Radical Left Democrat Party, THAT is a crime warranting the Death Penalty.
To the Left, political crimes are the only serious crimes.
