GEORGE SOROS - The Devil Incarnate ?

GEORGE SOROS - Difference Between Natural & Social Phenomena




In his latest book, Open Society, retired billionaire speculator George Soros continues to argue against capitalism and its justification in economic theory. The book doesn’t put a dent in capitalism, but shows that billionaire financiers don’t necessarily understand the first thing about economic systems.

Soros opens with an indictment of the concept of equilibrium. In the real world, equilibrium is compromised by what Soros calls “reflexivity.” Reflexivity (“the cornerstone of my conceptual framework”) refers to the fact that people’s opinions about social phenomena affect those very phenomena. All knowledge is therefore imperfect, and all social events unpredictable, he concludes.

The first problem is that Soros’s theorizing is confused. “Our thinking guides us in our actions,” he writes, “and our actions have an impact on what happens.” The actions of all individuals certainly have an impact on social reality, but a single individual can safely take the environment as given when making his own plans. The price of tomatoes depends on all individual demands, but an individual buyer can take prices as fixed. In cases where one individual’s actions influence another’s, strategic behavior (taking into account other people’s reactions) becomes rational, but this does not imply that the system is unstable. “Reflexivity” is much ado about nothing.

Ever since the Crash of 2008 there has been a widespread recognition, both among economists and the general public, that economic theory has failed. But there is no consensus on the causes and the extent of that failure. It looks like a growing number of professional investors are preparing for a stock market crash, as hedge fund filings for the second quarter show a spike in defensive positions.

In particular, legendary billionaire George Soros made a huge bet against the market. He increased his short position on the Standard & Poor’s 500 by a startling 605%.

From undermining the Second Amendment and influencing elections to sponsoring color revolutions in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, the ominous footprint of George Soros is everywhere.

The Hungarian-born billionaire and currency speculator who considers himself a messianic figure was voted “the single most destructive leftist demagogue in the country” by respondents to a poll published by the Human Events newspaper in 2011.

“George Soros is the most dangerous man in the world because, just like the crazy megalomaniacs in old fifties movies, he is deceiving everybody into believing that he is altruistic, when in fact, he is using his Open Society/Shadow Party to undermine the very fabric of American society,” the newspaper explained.

Since the early 1980s Soros has used his immense wealth and influence to “build vibrant and tolerant democracies whose governments are accountable to their citizens,” in other words, governments answerable to the financial elite. davos

Following the fall of the Soviet Union, Soros played an instrumental role in moving former satellite nations into the globalist fold. A few years later Soros would employ the tactics sharpened in Eastern Europe to foment the Arab Spring in the Middle East and Africa. In Egypt the color revolution turned blood red and managed to ultimately install a military dictatorship after a cobbled together plan to have a Muslim Brotherhood puppet rule the country failed. The Muslim Brotherhood has served for decades as an asset of U.S. and British intelligence. Jim Rogers is also quoted in the same story, saying, “I have frequently told people that one of the best investments in the world will be farmland.”
