"support unions." I find it a little funny that you would think the Koch Brothers "support unions."

Some union-made Koch products include a lot of brands under the Georgia-Pacific umbrella, such as Brawny, Sparkle and Mardi Gras paper towels; Quilted Northern, Angel Soft and MD toilet paper; and Vanity Fair, Zee, Brawny and Mardi Gras napkins; and house labels for places like Target.

I don't have the time to go through every plant for every product -- such as their residential and commercial construction products, for example. Many of them are produced by union workers. If people have questions about specifics it's best to research that product.
