George Soros, the Democratic Party's Progressive Puppet Master , is often referred to as the "man who broke the bank of England" in the 1992 Sterling crisis. During that crisis, he made $1 billion in one day at the expense of British taxpayers. At the time Soros was suspected of dealing based on inside information.
The rumor then was that Soros was acting on insider information obtained from the French central bank and the German Bundesbank. The insider information was that they would not support the British pound, despite a pre-existing arrangement to do so.
Given that Mr. Soros is no fool, the British believe it is highly doubtful he would have made such a colossal bet without knowing with great certainty that the Germans would not reduce their interest rate.
Soros, a self-admitted Nazi collaborator, has a reputation for trading on confidential information obtained from political sources. For instance, he was convicted by a French court of having insider knowledge about a takeover attempt of a major French bank. His conviction was upheld in 2006, and he had to pay a multimillion-dollar fine.

One man can’t do it, no matter how rich he is. He needs the help of the politicians.
Trying to keep his puppet afloat I suppose.....
Multimillion dollar fines for Soros are just another business expense. Merely a payoff for “getting caught”. For the economic ruin that he has sown, he seriously needs to serve prison time. He has done more damage to nations’ economies than Madoff or Enron.
Why is Soros still alive. Surely he has made a lot of people very angry.
What a life..the corrupt old coot doesn’t even have a chance of knowing what the money he has now is doing at any one time, and does he enjoy what he has? No he has to screw up other peoples lives to die with more points!!! I will miss him,not
Yeah, me too. Just sayin.....
As much as I hate Soros the Euros did this to themselves.
Soros is just the first vulture to the carcass.
“he made $1 billion in one day at the expense of British taxpayers”
It’s amazing how this guy can be the darling of the Left when he has taken so much wealth from the common man.
bttt
Soros is amazing. He made his billions by betting on whole countries going broke (even if he has to sometimes help the process along). I don’t know how it’s possible to be a bigger scumbag.
It’s telling how he is so loved by the political left.
Soros is McCain’s buddy too.
don't let titles fool you....communist,leftist,marxist,nazi,maifiosa, etc are all words meaning someone wants to take everything you have for themselves...
whether it be by Gotti or bama..its all the same..
I ask myself the same question. This guy is almost pure evil. He systematical destroys the financial systems in country after country. He has damaged the futures of countless millions.
