Is Soros a one-hit wonder? We hear he did good things forf the ex-communist nations in Eastern Europe as they broke free, but has he shown any actual entrepreneurial talent?

See posting #44 - - - Soros has made more successful "hits" over a period of three decades, than Warren Buffet or ?? that guy who made a mint for the Magellan Fund (forget his name).

Or politicians and central bankers who set their nations up to be financially raped by mismangement of their fiscal policy. Like most con artists, who cannot succeed without taking advantage of the greed of their victims, types like Soros would never have a chance to make a buck without the prevalence of unethical financial systems.

"Let me be clear: Soros earned his money, and he can spend it on whatever he wants. What concerns me is the monstrous hatred Soros has developed toward the President of the United States--hatred shared by others in his social circle."

Let me be clear:
What concerns me is the monstrous hatred developed toward those who oppose some of the policies of the President of the United States--prohibitional policies directed towards guns, drugs, and individual rights.
CWO's same specious agit-prop line could be parodied as:
-- 'Bush...the sugar daddy for the pro-prohibition crowd.'

You really should provide translation service for newer posters who may not have experienced your insights before. They might actually mistakenly think you're trying to say something.
To: CWOJackson
Every once in awhile tpaine crawls out of his spider hole to bay at the moon and curse his nation for making it difficult for him to indulge in behavior he has no interest in indulging in.
To: CWOJackson
Whereas, from your posts, these newbies can easily understand that ~you~ have nothing insightful to say..

"...to indulge in behavior he has no interest in indulging in."
LOL! That is a perfect description of the dope-squad.
I was always amazed that they all insist they don't use dope, never have and never would, but feel it their patriotic duty to make it legal.

Sadly, this is true. Well stated.

Good grief, it's the Curried mind, back in action.

I've been ignoring you.
Go back in your spider hole.
To: Kevin Curry
"Go back in your spider hole."
How prophetic. I have to admit, whenever I've tried to envision what tp could look like it was always something like Saddam when he crawled out of his spider hole.
To: CWOJackson
Soros...the sugar daddy for the pro-dope crowd. Uh oh, the Libertarians on FR, get really mad when you state the truth.

My 'dope' of choice these days are California Merlots, in moderation.
The only substance I've ever abused was the booze.. I was an ugly drunk on scotch, [30 years ago] for some unknown reason.
You & KC are typical prohibitionists.. Two bits you both abuse some substance, but would ~never~ admit it.

I've always found that leftists who "make it" in the capitalist system, usually believe 3 things... Number 1, that they were incredibly lucky in making their fortune, and if not for that luck, they wouldn't have made it. That luck is the only difference between them and "the poor" (TM). Secondly, that "although the capitalist system is bad," they were able to use it to overcome everything else... It's only because they're "special people" who are smarter, and better than the rest of us, that they can "control" the system. Although capitalism allowed them to get where they are, it's a bad system, and must be dismantled. Because it's better for everyone else, and they know what's best (otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten to where they are!). Third, that government MUST be used to "help the poor," since individuals simply aren't capable of "helping the poor." The people of the country must be made to pay for those charitable works... Quite often, leftists are extremely stingy on giving charity, since they believe it's the government's job, not that of the people.

Of course you only drink...none of the dope-squad users illegal drugs.

Just as a guess, I'd envision you as a Capt'n Queeg type, jackson.
