Please. 🙄

If anyone wanted to send a message to the Kochs, they have a GIANT building in ICT. Not to mention their compound off Rock Rd.

I am aware. I've been in their whichita and arlington buildings. that would not have instilled fear the way this does.

I could have never brought myself to walk in there. A lot of people in Wichita love working there. They’re a big employer. But, ethics.

we were trying to get to know them. in they end, they decided we weren't their kind of organization (too independent and principles driven). that's probably a good thing in the long run even though we stayed poorer (relatively speaking) as a result.

Agree 💯

They end up owning everyone and everything they touch imho

Much of the town… in more ways than one

and unlike Buffett, CK seems to want to control what he acquires.

Well he’s getting old…

but if he's instilled a way of doing things it will probably continue. at least Buffett's son understands the buy but don't interfere mindset.

Will be interesting to see who takes over when old Chuck croaks

is there anyone in line?

There has got to be… not sure who inherits the whole thing

I think there's a daughter, but I don't think she gets control.
