Will W. himself, as he readily admits, has worked for these Koch funded/influenced organizations. I think Will often takes too rosy of a picture of actors in general, not being old enough to have accepted how really self-centered humans are.

I too am leery of making the Kochs into some sort of super-villains, but it is true that they have played a rather significant role in American politics of the past few years in certain subject matters.
