The Koch Network Replaced the Republican Party

I certainly don’t have much good to say about David Koch, but I thought it would perhaps be more useful, on this occasion of his death, to explain precisely what he and brother Charles have done, because even with all that’s been written about them, it’s not as well understood as it ought to be. 

It comes down to two things: One, they moved the Republican Party very hard to the right on economic questions; two, they did it at all levels of government.
