Mike Lee is a Utah Libertarian malcontent in the mold of those rich Libertarian malcontents Charles and David Koch. His distorted view of the U.S. Constitution and the legitimacy of the Federal government is shared by the Koch brothers. Like the Koch brothers, Lee demands a quick end to most of the Federal government’s agencies, departments and programs; he claims it is the only prescription to prevent civil war. Lee is a Koch acolyte of the first order. Lee’s claim is that unless Democrats join Republicans and “move to a system granting de facto sovereignty to the states and eliminate massive federal programs like public education and interstate highways there will be a civil war.”
