Koch Bros..Industries.................................................................
Georgia-Pacific paper for your printer
Brawny paper towels
Dixie cups
Northern bath tissue
Angel Soft bath tissue

etc..........................now why not Boycott????????

some..not sure which...are good union jobs..yep...and pay good wages..right here in the U.S.A..
..........yep to the workers..so Koch Bros..would like nothing more than an excuse to fire those union people, move the plant, and start elsewhere..or just fire them all...that is the problem..

I suggested a boycott years ago, and someone that knew the unions well ..........schooled me on this....
