Don't Fall for the Koch Bros. Jive

The Koch brothers, representing plutocracy at its most arrogant, have now come out in favor of "reforming" the legal system. On their agenda "The right not to be prosecuted for accidentally breaking the law; fair treatment under the law; competent and fair representation; mandatory minimum reforms; and restoration of rights." They have managed to take in the ACLU and several liberal, or allegedly liberal politicians, into their agenda. In reality, the Koch's are mostly interested in maintaining the power and wealth of themselves. The main problem in this country is the overbearing power of rich plutocrats like the Koch's. The real goal of progressives should be to cut down or better yet destroy the plutocrats power. Any other issues can wait.
