Chart o' the day: Koch Spends More Than Double Top Ten Unions Combined
OK EarlG here are the absolute facts. Koch uses their OWN money compared to unions. The unions (oh, you forgot the entertainment unions that actually make the bulk of the contributions) uses the money raised by the dues on your members hard work. All unions have members who don't support the candidates they endorse but their money is taken and used against their will for the war chests of candidates they do NOT support. So when it comes to unions, you have no choice.

It doesn't really matter to them.
If it did, they would have a problem with what Obama is doing to the debt to buy support. Even the Koch brothers are incapable of spending more than every previous administration combined.

If you don't allow the union to bribe politicians to pass laws to force you to pay union dues then you're stealing from the unions.

Lesser Steve has this same meme posted in the Secret Squirrel DU group on FB. Sooooo tempted to point out your facts above to him. But I don't want to out myself yet.

This is the new lie being spread by the left to attack the Koch brothers.
The reality is that the Koch brothers are way down the list, number 59 on a list of top donors.
59 Koch Industries $18,139,448 8%
Donations from 1989-2104 (https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/list.php)
The DUmmie figures come from strictly left wing attack sites and are easily refuted by the above link.
Legitimate news sites recognize that unions are the true big spenders.
