Study Confirms Tea Party Was Created by Big Tobacco and Billionaire Koch Brothers

You’ll Find Koch Dollars At the Root Of the Calls for Armed Revolution Against Obama

And they of course are behind the "citizens united" PAC and their successful bid to allow for unlimited spending in elections (as well as pushing for the Keystone XL pipeline which Greg Palast has shown will save them something on the order of $2 billion a year) and they're working to buy up newspapers to control what is printed (likely specifically about them and their works).

So billionaires are taking over the government. These two are merely the tip of the iceberg. The "call to armed revolution" is utter bullshit along the lines of the mocking titles of their PACs; Obama is a proven shill for the plutonomists via continued wall street bailouts and even protection from prosecution, and there is a revolving door in the white house for corporate access.

Who or what exactly enables "austerity", or "sequestration"?

Who says Obama is against the plutonomy take-over? He's not.
