Market Based Management is causing the accidents at Georgia Pacific. You cant give people a 25 page safety protocol and then simultaneously rank everyone on performance time with those ranking lowest getting fired. People will be concerned about their jobs, try to speed up, take short cuts, take risks, make mistakes, or be so distracted with worry about their job that something will blind side them.
It is also the source of the pollution, pipelines not being maintained, etc - its all about creating libertarian madhouse forcing people to conform to his views.

Christopher, I like how you, despite having a different worldview and positioning yourself that way still speaks about the subject with the utmost integrity and honesty. I disagree with you on politics, as I'm an "absolute free market" guy, but you have my respect as a journalist and as a man for being truthful about the whole Koch affair. We'd be way better off if more people were like you. Most of the press would not care about what the man really thinks and would try to create an evil caricature of a billionaire.

absolutely nothing constructive about this conversation, appears to be a reporter that had a preconceived conception about Koch and found research to confirm his ideology...There are so many more interesting components of Koch and questions that could have been asked to illuminate the more complex components of Koch if he truly took a curious approach.
Absolutely nothing constructive about this criticism, appears to be a troll that has a paid agenda to defend Koch and found research here that threatens his sponsor and his ideology...There are so many more odious components of Koch and questions that need to be asked to illuminate the complex and dark components of Koch if he were to take an honest approach.
absolutely nothing constructive about this comment, appears to be a commenter that had a preconceived conception about this reporter and found research to confirm his ideology...There are so many more interesting components of this book and questions that could have been asked to illuminate the more complex components of Kochland if he truly took a curious approach.
