Koch Brothers Among U.S. Billionaires Pressuring Thousands of Employees to Vote GOP on Election Day

Overturn Citizens United now! This is terrifying. CEOs threatening to fire their workers if Obama wins, the Kochs being the Kochs with no reprecussions, political pressure in the work place?
Of all of the terrible decisions the Supreme Court has been known to (on occasion) hand down, this is up there among the worst.
