Soros is not stupid, but he is given credit for a lot more intelligence, foresight and intuition than he actually possess.

Do you have a link to that paper btw? I can’t find it on Fannie’s website.

“The Nazis killed so many Jews, yet they failed to stomp out this vermin.”

They almost did. If his dad wasn’t as smart as he was, he probably wouldn’t have made it out. I’m sick of arguing about this with you. Write whatever you want to – I can’t read it anymore. It’s either confused rambling arguments for the sake of argument or it’s this sort of stuff, which is shocking to read from someone who talks so much about escaping such a system herself.

I know of a doctor in the Bay Area that makes so much money that he’s able to foul the planet with CO2-spewing vacations to the far reaches of the globe on a regular basis.

If not quite grasping why Stiglitz and Soros are promoting Nazism is “twisting in the wind”, then I’m proud to say that’s exactly what I’m doing. If you’re happy tossing out Nazi references, enjoy.

Oh, I wouldn’t say that. Stupid people make money all the time.

Carry on.

He’s absolutely not marginalized by other economists for his economics – he’s central and often cited. Again, appropriately so.

I should have known better – I should have made that more explicit for you.

But now that it is explicit, I’m curious – why does exploring asymmetric information in markets indicate that Soros is working “tirelessly to create the very same system that stokes Antisemitism in his homeland and that destroyed whole populations.” Monumental accusations like that require a somewhat more rigorous defense. I can’t imagine you’d be too pleased if someone just declared you were working tirelessly to recreate Nazism, and then just left it at that.

Good first baby step, Daniel. Although, missing something has never stopped you before and it’s not slowing you down now.

And I’m glad they didn’t pay attention to him. He’s over the top. He’s a good theorist, and a good economist. He goes overboard in policy recommendations. But there’s no doubt at all he’s marginalized.

Like me, he came from the alternative to free markets. Like me, he escaped. He owes his entire existence and every penny of his wealth to the freedoms he attained by slithering onto these shores. Now, he works tirelessly to create the very same system that stokes Antisemitism in his homeland and that destroyed whole populations. He wants to rob people of basic freedoms that he is wishes to buy (from politicians, of course) for himself.

12 of my family members were slaughtered in Poland. The Nazis killed so many Jews, yet they failed to stomp out this vermin.
