’m libertarian leaning – like Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit. However, at some point common sense needs to kick in and neither Glenn or I support open borders. The Koch brothers treat/ed libertarianism as a religion and that includes open borders. The official libertarian religion is that there should be no welfare and thus anyone coming to the US will provide value in services. You might eventually sell me on that (but probably not) but that’s not how it works now and never will. You need to make decisions based on reality not on believing in unicorn farts. The US is currently a welfare magnet to the third world and only Trump was running on that issue. Not one dem, then and not one dem ever, is going to deal with that reality. When you are in the same arena as AOC, you might consider getting out of the intellectual sewer. Then they were never Trumpers. They didn’t like the tone. As I’ve said, I don’t believe in asymmetrical warfare. The Koch’s again completely ignored the actual facts on the ground with any republican being called a nazi white supremacist. They preferred the maverick – mitten’s approach of taking the high road and losing. Losing is for losers.
Ts & Ps to his family, but looking at this objectively, it's good for the United States that he's gone.
Well hell has frozen over. I agree with you on both of your last posts
The radical leftist Progressives celebrated when Barbara Bush croaked, for god's sake.The radical leftist Progressive have no decency or shame. {time for H and CD to whine weigh in}
However the Koch’s were Nevertrumpers that wouldn’t support a candidate that supported Trump. David Koch was a Republican Elite that supported unbridled immigration to provide low paid workers for the US.https://freebeacon.com/issues/left-wing-journalists-celebrate-david-kochs-death-on-twitter/
I'm happy to dramatically cut citizen welfare including crony capitalism. Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway gets over $700 million a year in federal tax credits for wind and solar farms. The topic however was Koch"s and the dems open border policy combined with a massive I'll governed welfare state.

So sorry the billionaire who spent his entire life buying politicians to enrich himself was disrespected on Twitter.

I don't know that I've ever seen a thread that stayed focused on the original point.
Ts & Ps to his family, but looking at this objectively, it's good for the United States that he's gone. Hardly. He and his family are good business people. Good business people create value. The Kochs created value. They took a public company private in a deal I worked on. That company had great assets and a historical brand and did nothing but lose money and was destined for the scrap heap. The Kochs bought it, admittedly on the cheap, and made it profitable and viable. Most people at the company were able to keep on working.I'm struggling to see why the US is better off.
