To settle once and for all which oligarch's vision of America should prevail, we should put one Koch brother in a Celebrity Death Match with George Soros, the other Koch with Warren Buffett. The Kochs would have size and youth on their side, but if we split them up they'd quickly become confused and demoralized.
... And then Bill Gates and Larry Ellison could be waiting ringside with clubs just in case the wrong billionaire wins.
That kind of blood sport would be much more civilized than shadowy 503(c)(3) "super PACs" and even less transparent 503(c)(4) "social welfare organizations" turning our election campaigns into latrines of intentional lies and disinformation.
