You said people listen to him because the man has money and clout. I simply asked you if that is a good enough reason for you to listen to someone. Personally I don't care how much money someone has because I know money doesn't make them right on any given issue.

You should pay attention to what he says because he has power and influence.

He's out of wall street and into media and social movements.
This "opinion" of his would definitely fuel his new interests.

Well guess what maybe we are not the ones wearing the tin foil hats because Soros a icon of the left sounds like he has joined our ranks :



That is some pretty good doom and glooming from Soros , Hmmm wonder why he is not excited about the stock market being up? or consumer confidence? or GM back to number1? Where is all the happy talk? He also talked about some civil unrest :



That is amazing I thought that kind of talk was from right wing extremist wackos that had tin foil hats. So why do those that lean left not agree with Soros and the right wing wackos? Soros gives the perfect answer here:



There you have it people do not even see it coming, now who is wearing the tin foil hats?

That is not being a "gloom and doomer" it is called being a realist

Thank you, I consider myself a realist and hearing a insider like Soros seeing some of the same signs makes me think I am on the right path. There are just to many similarities between the depression years and now to be ignored.

And if some of these Americans who fight over Black Friday sales had to deal with austerity measures..YIKES is all I can say.

Be far, far away from the cities if that happens.
