In what we should label is a very brave and risky move, Reuters today is telling people how it really is. Turns out George Soros may be helping to back the Occupy Wall Street movement via umbrella groups.
Now, I already figured that, deep in my heart, but it's sobering to see a prime once-legit media outlet come up with it. I also knew that the planning for this stuff had been in the works for months or even years, but it's nice to confirm.
Mr. Soros' political leanings are hard to describe, really, since he funds progressive (read that as Marxist) efforts to thwart capitalism while at the same time makes money placing bets on economic instability. I think he's tired of America dominance and would like to see us go down the tubes so other cultures could emerge that he could exploit. Or something. Maybe that makes sense after all. Tired of just betting against and collapsing monetary systems, Mr. Soros might be going after whole economies or even ways of life now. Hmmmm...
I hope that when all is said and done Mr. Soros' charities will step in to help clean up the mess left behind, both literally and figuratively.
On another note, my class last night was discussing, by themselves, how OWS=Losers. I ruled in ONLY after letting them talk about it for a few minutes (at the end of our break). So it seems that some of "today's yoot" actually get it. Thank goodness.
