Oh, please. Tell me that was a troll job or "Onion" piece and that no one is really that brainwashed. Soros gives to uber-partisan groups. It's much more about him pushing his agenda (while preserving his billions) than having a heart of gold. He's no Mother Teresa of Calcutta. He's a convicted felon and most people would've gone to jail if they were in his shoes.
The world is riddled of collapsed countries directly related to Soro's currency shorting. He tries to enforce his believes on currency bets and manipulating the media (media matters here). Time to be swimming with the fishes I say.
Let me understand this. If the markets need regulation, but only good regulation that must mean there is bad regulation. Who's going to decide which is good or bad? I mean who's going to regulate the regulators? The CFR? Liberal hypocrisy at it's best.
Soros' Philosophy on Government: The best government taxes and regulates others more, and taxes and regulates Soros less! What, it's complicated or something?
That's what I think. He is retiring. Being a speuclator is not like being Rupert. He knows his day has past, but ya know he's not going to come out and say it.
His liberal agenda's and the destruction of the USA will continue long after he is worm food. He has spent billions in many different "media" organizations and their number one goal is to bury any and all conservative values. edit: Remember he wants to tax currency trades to "curb" speculation....MASSIVE hypocrite and the whole FTT destroys markets.
This is very discouraging to me, because I would like to think that traders are brighter and more circumspect then your posts indicate. To think that someone who has been through the hell that Soros has, has worked his ass off to first survive, and then used his brains and wit to make a lot of money legally and pay his debt to society is being treated so unfairly, is disheartening. But I don't think he cares, because persons of his intellect and substance neither seek nor need the approval of you fools.
Uh Oh...I have violated one of my number one rules - don't talk about religion and politics - especially in cyberspace. Not saying you are wrong. Not saying you are right. I don't know.
His family´s monies are approx. $24 billion. Correct me, If am wrong: Quantum Funds (offshore) earned on average more than 20% year since inception 40 years ago - except in the year 2000 when Stanley Druckenmiller lost more than 40% in 3 or weeks time. Respect for that. Otherwise, I don´t care about his political beliefs.
I guess this is what Soros would call "reflexivity" http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...nnel=suggest&tbm=isch&ei=fHEvTtSvLIqesQKrio1y
