For six decades around the world, Koch Industries has blazed a path to riches -- in part, by making illicit payments to win contracts, trading with a terrorist state, fixing prices, neglecting safety and ignoring environmental regulations. At the same time, Charles and David Koch have promoted a form of government that interferes less with company actions.

Wow, this is a lengthy read. Need more time. But if it involves listing Koch brother's attrocities, it is no wonder it is lengthy.
It is nice to be able to see confirmation that there is in fact a "Koch Method" where an employee admits that they are actually trained to lie and cheat. It seems like this method has been used by many other "bad corporations or companies". We have seen it in ENRON, Haliburton, and others like Mr. Murdock who seem to all share one common trait, arrogance. That arrogance is driven by vast accumulations of wealth and influence. When we all learn how to break their ability to influence, lie, manipulate, cheat, and corrupt then we will bust their arrogance and power. Believe me when I tell you I have thought long and hard about this. I do not have an answer. As a result of the Koch activities we now have something called the Tea Party. It would have been fine if they had supported a fair and just Libertarian Party, but they had to throw the arrogance factor into it which includes the Koch Methods. You can't help but see the similarities. I for one could have supported a Republican candidate until the party became arrogant. I for one could have supported the Democrats who came into power with Obama, until Congress became arrogant. I for one could support a Libratarian until they became arrogant. Lift the arrogance factor, and now you have someone I could support as my representative in WDC. For now all I can support is my disgust. My belief is that each of these "powers" will do themselves in with their own corrupt attitudes.
