George Soros has donated more than $8 billion globally to his Open Society Foundations. Couple that with decades of investing around the world and it would be easy to assume Soros in a figure of global popularity.
Only he isn’t. He’s almost the polar opposite.
Soros made headlines recently warning of increased economic problems, the growth of Occupy Wall Street and government repression what he characterized as “strong-arm tactics to maintain law and order.” In short, the kind of chaos helped foment in the old Soviet Union and elsewhere.
In his book “Open Society,” Soros credits his foundation with “mobilizing civil society” against the government in Slovakia and Croatia, among others. He readily calls himself “an active participant in the revolution that swept away the Soviet system.”
So when Soros talks of chaos, it’s a subject he knows well. The only question is his involvement.
Most everywhere Soros, his foundations or his investment money has gone, trouble has followed.
He’s helped start revolutions, undermined national currencies and funded radicals around the world.
Soros has been convicted of insider dealing in France and fined $3 million, fined another $2 million in his native Hungary.
His “foundations have been accused of shielding spies and breaking currency laws” and his investing strategy has been targeted for harming several national currencies.
That’s not the story the broadcast networks have been telling about Soros for the past five years

If he is so hated why is he still breathing?
I read that his brother has Parkinson’s. He should have donated that $8 billion for research.
Maybe one more: The Act of Valor guys haven't noticed him yet.
Dang!
How many guards does he have?
Why?
We all gonna die of SOMETHING; other than good health.
Probably for the same reason nicolae carpathia was able to walk out of the White House after a missile made a direct hit on it.
