Steve Hilton: Elitist hypocrite George Soros makes a fool of himself in Davos

[Gunny]

Liberal billionaire George Soros grabbed headlines at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland on Thursday by attacking internet giants Google and Facebook. Conveniently ignoring his own investment in these companies, Soros branded them a “menace to society.”
“They deliberately engineer addiction to the services they provide,” Soros said. “This can be very harmful, particularly for adolescents. There is a similarity between internet platforms and gambling companies. Casinos have developed techniques to hook gamblers to the point where they gamble away all their money, even money they don’t have. Something very harmful and maybe irreversible is happening to human attention in the digital age. Not just distraction or addiction: social media companies are inducing people to give up their autonomy.”
Well, Soros would know about gambling: after all, he made his billions, by gambling in the casino of the financial markets. It worked out great for him, turning him into a fabulously wealthy plutocrat afforded the platform to pontificate pompously to his fellow elitists at Davos, and to indulge his personal political predilections by throwing his money at liberal causes.
But let’s remember: it’s money he made off the backs of the poor and the working class. Soros’ gambling happens to have wrecked the lives of millions of working people, not least in the United Kingdom, where his manipulation of the currency markets in the early 1990s caused a deep recession and untold misery for millions.

Besides being a hypocrite beyond words, this dude is just plain nuts. If there isn't a law against his meddling government affairs, there should be. If anyone should be investigated for colluding to sway an election, he's #1 on MY list.

What I find funny is that all the moonbats running around railing at rich people and capitalism - and applying Nazi labels at every turn - are serving this evil old Hungarian who actually WAS a Nazi who made his billions in capitalist markets.

There's just no sense here. The moonbats are manipulated and refuse to see the truth while it's staring them in the face.

The very person they serve is exactly what they supposedly are against.

I don't get it either. Where exactly do these fruitloops think the leftard elite get their wealth? From giving it away to socialist programs?

Soros truly has to be one of the most evil men on the planet.

The billionaire Charles Koch on Sunday said rumours he would support Hillary Clinton in the US presidential election were “a blood libel”. The industrialist will not support Donald Trump either.

“At this point I can’t support either candidate, but I’m certainly not going to support Hillary,” Koch told hundreds of donors in a luxury hotel at the foot of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, at a semiannual policy and fundraising event.

Who?

Simple point, Pete: Conservatives don't lie about being capitalists. Leftwingnuts DO. They sell this identifying with the poor, ethnic minorities, women, and anything else that isn't a white male. But what are most Democrat politicians? Wealthy white males.
