Soros backs Greek 'solidarity houses'

George Soros on Tuesday unveiled plans to set up “solidarity houses” in Greece to offer food and shelter to Greeks and immigrants who are being tested by the economic crisis.

The Hungarian-born investor told a conference in Berlin that “the people currently being tested neither mismanaged the system nor are they responsible for the crisis.” He said the aim of his initiative would be for “the Europeans to show solidarity to the Greeks and for the Greeks to show solidarity to migrants.”

He added that a team from the Open Society Initiative for Europe (OSIFE), an organization he helped establish recently, would be sent to Athens to make an initial assessment of people’s needs.

To a certain extent, he’s right. Most of these people likely did little to get into the situation they are in.

Of course, it’s because of the cradle to grave, government will take care of me mentality that these people all grew up with that’s the main culprit. Of course, Mr. Soros supports that 100% for all the riff-raff.

Only a fool says no to free stuff.....

Of course Nothing is every truly free.....

So that means, that only a fool says yes without thinking to free stuff....

Someone once offered me a free meal and I was out with friends, I said No and my friends mocked me, well after they were sick of food poisoning the next day i forgave them for mocking me.

Soros probably had a great deal to do with the troubled people he appears to swoop in to “help”.

I’m convinced Soros was the one to withdraw 55 BILLION from OUR stock market just in time (Sept 2008) to enable Bath-House Barry to gain the HOMOPOTUS position.

Soros “cares” about people like satan does.

Soros probably has more stashed in banks all over the world then the annual budget of Greece over many years.

You can call them “solidarity houses” but in a years time I’ll bet they will more resemble a debtor’s prison from a Dickens’s novel.

George Soros....one of the biggest free trade globalists around.

If you truly want to help Greece...get Greece out of the EU and dump the Euro. Anyone familiar with the way the EU operates knows that the EU pretty much forced Greece to commit to all that government spending
