Koch brothers are libertarians. They invented the modern creed.
Their position has not changed. Don’t agree with it, but I can respect it for its consistency
I never said that they changed. What has changed is who is in office, and as a result the Kochs are willing to put their differences with liberal Democrats aside in order to achieve their shared dream of a world without borders. The fact that they prefer liberal Democrats to Trump highlights the fact that open borders are an even greater priority for the Kochs than tax cuts and deregulation.
Don’t agree with it, but I can respect it for its consistency
I have about the same "respect" for their consistency as I do for the consistency of sincere Marxists.
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.
