The apple doesn't fall from from the tree

Charles and David Koch, the billionaire oil magnates who are funding all kinds of far right movements, including Carbon County’s own 9-12 group, inherited much of their money from their father, Fred Koch.


It turns out that Fred Koch made much of that initial fortune building oil refineries for Adolph Hitler.  All of this is detailed in a new book by Jane Mayer entitled Dark Money.   As my mother would say of the Koch Brothers, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”
