I agree, but until this big money gets out of our elections that isn't gonna happen!
The Koch brothers reportedly made another financial commitment for the 2014 elections Monday, announcing a new super PAC called Freedom Partners Action Fund, according to Politico. The group will invest $15 million in the midterms, bringing the Kochs' total investment to a reported $290 million.
The grandaddy of Democratic mega-donors — billionaire financier George Soros — also stepped up, giving $1 million to Priorities USA Action and a $250,000 check to House Majority PAC in early October. Soros, who became a conservative target after contributing $24 million in 2004 to efforts fighting President George W. Bush, this year has pledged at least $4.3 million to various liberal outside groups.
Meanwhile, his son, Jonathan Soros, launched Friends of Democracy, “a super PAC to end all super PACs” earlier this year. Soros’s super PAC has raised a total of $2.1 million since its founding and has spent $1.2 million mostly on direct mail.
