More Koch-Funded Support for the EU Central Planning Bureaucracy

June 23, 2016

This time from the British Adam Smith Institute, which has a Koch Foundation-funded summer program in DC where its “Koch associates” are indoctrinated in the Koch version of “freedom.” This apparently includes support of a highly centralized super regulatory central planning state apparatus run by hundreds of anonymous foreign bureaucrats (and five unelected “presidents”) over which no one has any control.  Not that domestic bureaucrats would be any better.

I wonder how Charles Koch’s strategy of promoting “freedom” by being the single largest donor to the Republican Party is working out.  So far, it seems only to have helped along the explosion of crony capitalism.  But then again, as Mel Brooks might say, “It’s good to be a crony”).
