“They’re not “libertarians”. They are international socialists who hold no allegiance to America. They are scumbags.”

Finally, someone who calls them what they really are.

“Koch brothers are libertarians.”

To a point. The Kocks' game the federal government and federal law just like everyone else. They were grabbing billions of dollars of federal tax credits under the black liquor tax credit scheme - just like non-libertarians.

Of course, the Kocks’ say when the five percent of the population that are libertarians take over - in 50 or 100 years - they will change the current system they profit from to a new system in which they may lose money.

But right now they are stuck taking money from - and pouring donations into - the bad system.

Now leave those fighters for justice alone.

For instance I find it appalling that most Libertarians are Free Traders and NOTHING in the US Constitution allows for duty free trade across international borders. In fact the opposite is the truth. They have been gas lighting us for decades on this.

More like generations.

I had to look that up. On of today's learning moments.

Gas Lighting - is a form of manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, hoping to make them question their own memory, perception, and sanity.

I've often remarked that THE litmus test issue for being part of the political establishment and in the media's good graces is a commitment to open borders. As long as you don't want to restrict immigration, all other differences are forgiven. If you're an immigration restrictionist, no amount of agreement on any other issue will put you in the elites' graces.

REPORT: Four Million Brits Can’t Get Work, ‘Virtually Unlimited Pool’ of EU Migrants

excerpt: Breitbart News by Liam Deacon May 17, 2018

http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/05/17/report-four-million-brits-cant-get-full-time-work-unlimited-pool-eu-migrants/

“The large inflow of migrant labour… may have contributed to continuing high levels of underemployment which could be around four million people,” they write.

The report, by Migration Watch, claims that official figures boasting of high employment do not take account of people involuntarily stuck in part-time work. Around a fifth of part-time male workers and a quarter of part-time female workers said they wanted to work more work, the study found.

They explain that “record numbers of people working and record rates of employment, which now appear in UK labour market statistics, do not give a full picture as to whether people are able to get work or, if they wish, get more work”.

The National Review crowd has said repeatedly that the Koch brothers are “principled conservatives” so who to believe???
