below are the Koch brothers 10 largest companys
https://www.investopedia.com/insight...koch-brothers/
note the us gets about 1/3 of its energy from natural gas thats a huge amount of money and oil.
Well heres a list of the top ten natural gas producers in the usa, odd none of them are owned by the Koch brothers.
could our FRIEND who claims to be from down under be mistaken yet AGAIN.
Our friend seems to dislike the Koch brothers and complains about them using dirty oil . indeed they do especially in some of their small operations as many small oil company's do.
lint Hills is a fuel-producing company. It offers petroleum products, gasoline, diesel fuels, jet fuels, and other oil products, as well as those related to polymers and other chemicals. The company's ethanol plants have a combined production capacity of more than 800 million gallons per year.
but one thing they use a huge amount of oil for is there asphalt company which is huge .Asphalt production is about 110 million tons a year. cheaper oil makes up most of that.
odd that a guy who claims to be from down under is so down on the Koch brothers don't you think.
I mean I don't care about Australian billionaires do privately or their politics.
hers how the Koch family got stated
Koch started his career with the Texas Company in Port Arthur, Texas,[8] and later became chief engineer with the Medway Oil & Storage Company on the Isle of Grain in Kent, England. In 1925 he joined a fellow MIT classmate, P.C. Keith, at Keith-Winkler Engineering in Wichita, Kansas. Following the departure of Keith in 1925,[10] the firm became Winkler-Koch Engineering Company.[1][8]
In 1927, Koch developed a more efficient thermal cracking process for turning crude oil into gasoline which allowed smaller players in the industry to better compete with the oil majors. The larger oil companies quickly sued in response, filing 44 different lawsuits against Koch, and embroiling him in litigation for years. Koch was to prevail in all but one of the suits (which was later over-turned due to the fact that the judge had been bribed).[11]
yes the Koch family engineered a system that let the little guy compete with billion dollar multi national company's.
