Thanks for the other link as well, Richard. I really hope other news organizations will continue to follow up with this. I doubt this is what Fox meant when they said to follow the money, but it's most definitely relevant. I've been posting this article everywhere I can, and I really hope people read it and think about it. Personally, this was really eye opening for me; I always knew, because I had been told, that money really is power in government, but I never really understood it. This is very scary. Maybe it's partly due to my finally getting involved with an organization that seeks to change things at the policy level and thinking about how to go about doing that, but this really lays clear what exactly we're up against.
As far as who will take over when those two bite it, I don't know that any of us are at liberty to know that; perhaps one of the children, who I'm sure have been indoctrinated, or another subordinate within the Koch industries. I won't be naive enough to hope that the Kochtopus will disintegrate without its leaders; there's probably a Frankenstein component here as well, that no one will be able to maintain such a vast empire other than its creators, but they will all continue to carry on the Koch intellectual legacy.
