re: #220 Fat Bastard Vegetarian

I’m not arguing for either side, Ice. Just thirsting for knowledge.

FBV, I am too thirsting for information. Condensed, since I have neither the time nor the inclination (nor, frankly, the brainpower) to go through scads of financial information to figure out exactly what it is that Soros does.

I’m not a fan of Soros; I don’t agree with or like his political leanings, and I think he’s more of an opportunist than the philanthropist he seems to like to be known as.

But if you read the article closely, it appears to outline some vague web of connections, but it isn’t clear to me how (or if) those connections are illegal or improperly used. It’s a fact that those with money and ability will meet all sorts of people and have all sorts of connections. That alone is not necessarily illegal, immoral or unethical.

I actually don’t have a problem with people taking advantage of opportunities that come their way, if moral, legal and ethical. And that seems to be what Soros does. He may skirt the boundaries of moral, legal, ethical (as do many others), but as of now, it doesn’t appear to me he has crossed any lines.
