“So the actual pattern we see is the Koch brothers and their pet think tanks actively encouraging a near-totalitarian level of state intervention to suppress all the mechanisms of civil society — investigative journalism by a free and independent press, a vigorous system of civil liability, etc. — that would help keep business honest and hold it accountable. The corporate Pharisees of our day strain at a gnat using ‘free market’ rhetoric to attack welfare for the poor, but swallow a camel when it comes to welfare for corporations. They claim to favor ‘economic freedom’ and ‘free trade,’ while putting the entire world under the totalitarian lockdown of draconian ‘intellectual property’ law.”
