George Soros: The Global Financial System Is In A 'SELF-REINFORCING PROCESS OF DISINTEGRATION'

Investor George Soros foretold doom in a recent speech in front of the International Senior Lawyers Project, according to the WSJ.

The financial system is collapsing, and the developed world is fast falling into a "deflationary debt trap."

"The consequences could be quite disastrous," he said. "You have to do what you can to stop it developing in that direction."

Soros has been an outspoken advocate of taking more radical action to stem the European debt crisis, endorsing intervention by the European Central Bank and even eurobonds. He doesn't think too highly about the rest of the world either, speculating that global economic imbalances are continuing to destabilize the global economy.

But it's not all bad. "A lot of positive things are happening," Soros said. "I see Africa together with the Arab Spring as areas of progress. The Arab Spring was a revolutionary development."

This guy is happy as a pig in slop.

I read that as, “...The Global Financial System Is In A ‘SOROS-REINFORCING PROCESS OF DISINTEGRATION’

If someone wants to audit someone, start with this piece if “s”.

The communist Soros always plays the “casual observer” as his schemes get executed.

Hey George, how much money are you going to skim off the top of a global economic collapse?

Soros was one of those who lobbied The Fed to bail out Europe ... and himself.

No doubt. The guy is scum, and more than one nation is aware of it. So what do we do? We elect someone who is his ally.

George's Hedge Fund is out Aruba. It does not follow US laws.

Yet his Representative was at a New York Fed meeting on loaning Europe money?

why wouldn't he fund any progressive cause its not his money.

Analogy of the Soros warning: After steeling all the money the bank robber left a note to remind the bank manager to close and lock the vault before going home.

I think it is perfectly alright to despise a person if it is done for rational reasons. I don’t hold with this judge not lest you be judged. The creator gave us reasoning minds and I think he expects us to use them. Evil is always to be despised.
