Letter: On Kochs, Tea Party, Libertarians

Could it be that the basic tenets of the tea party, Libertarian Party and the billionaire Koch brothers are nearly the same? How might this have happened?

The fact is, the Koch brothers have a foundation that has trained thousands of tea party activists and their unlimited monies flow to the tea party candidates.

According to a Bloomberg report, when David Koch ran for vice president on the Libertarian ticket in 1980, he promised to abolish Social Security, minimum wage laws, the Federal Reserve System and the FBI and CIA, along with other federal agencies.

Does this not sound like tea party members when they talk of getting rid of the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Education, weakening the power of Food and Drug Administration and FEMA while cutting Social Security and reducing or eliminating all kinds of health care programs?

When you analyze and listen to Libertarian candidates closely, you will realize they are anarchists who want no rules or regulations and no effective government.

With their views on health care for young and old, you can be sure the Libertarians, Koch Brothers and many tea party members have not participated in bake sales for children with brain tumors, nor do they care if wiping out EPA might lead to “cancer communities” like the ones in China.
