Remember, after heath care passed, how tea party protesters broke into the Capitol and handcuffed the doors closed so no police could get in, while yelling about how they were taking their government back? No? That’s right, because it didn’t happen. But the very thought is terrifying, right?

Here, it’s worth mentioning that Tea Party supporters have some better options than public demonstrations at their disposal to further their legislative goals. I hear one of those options is the corporate treasury of a sprawling, privately held and well-capitalized conglomerate based in Wichita, Kansas.

Is there a progressive equivalent to Koch Industries?
