Profile
In an election year expect the billionaire libertarian brothers (combined net worth: $50 billion) to ramp up their battle to unseat Obama, whom David has described as "a hard-core socialist," in "the mother of all wars" (Charles). The conservative nonprofit David founded, Americans for Prosperity, spent $45 million on the midterm election cycle and was a major supporter of conservative candidates. Obama called the group "a corporate takeover of our democracy." The brothers are even more generous to arts and medical causes. The David H. Koch Charitable Foundation alone has given $750 million to institutions ranging from the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts to the MD Anderson Cancer Center.
