would change their name to Coke.

But I was using them as examples of the beneficiaries of Republican policies before most people (outside of Kansas) had heard of them.

I like seeing them get attention.

But why not Koch billionaires instead of Koch brothers?

My brother and I = Koch brothers
my dad and my uncles = Koch brothers
my male cousins on dad's side = Koch brothers (one of them is even named David, and I first discovered the billionaire by doing a search for my cousin)
my grandfather and his brother = Koch brothers (albeit both deceased since 1980)

But NONE of the above are Koch "billionaires".
