Background

About David Koch

Supports policies that promote individual liberty and free market principles. He supports gay marriage and stem-cell research. Against the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Opposes the war on drugs and skeptical about anthropogenic global warming. A warmer planet would be good because "Earth will be able to support enormously more people because a far greater land area will be available to produce food". Koch opposed the Iraq war, saying that the war has "cost a lot of money and it's taken so many American lives", and "I question whether that was the right thing to do. In hindsight that looks like it was not a good policy" Critical of many of President Obama's policies."He's the most radical president we've ever had as a nation. and has done more damage to the free enterprise system and long-term prosperity than any president we've ever had. I believe that Obama's father's economic socialism explains what I views as Obama's belief in "anti business, anti-free enterprise influences."
