George Soros Warns Of Financial Collapse, Class Warfare And The Rise Of Evil

Soros

George Soros warns of financial collapse and class warfare in a chilling interview with Newsweek's John Alridge.

“At times like these, survival is the most important thing,” he says, peering through his owlish glasses and brushing wisps of gray hair off his forehead. He doesn’t just mean it’s time to protect your assets. He means it’s time to stave off disaster. As he sees it, the world faces one of the most dangerous periods of modern history—a period of “evil.” Europe is confronting a descent into chaos and conflict. In America he predicts riots on the streets that will lead to a brutal clampdown that will dramatically curtail civil liberties. The global economic system could even collapse altogether.

“I am not here to cheer you up. The situation is about as serious and difficult as I’ve experienced in my career,” Soros tells Newsweek. “We are facing an extremely difficult time, comparable in many ways to the 1930s, the Great Depression. We are facing now a general retrenchment in the developed world, which threatens to put us in a decade of more stagnation, or worse. The best-case scenario is a deflationary environment. The worst-case scenario is a collapse of the financial system.”

Read the full interview at The Daily Beast >

These days Soros is holding mostly cash -- he calls gold "the ultimate bubble -- along with European bonds he picked up in the MF Global firesale -- judge for yourself whether they were a cutthroat investment or altruistic support for Europe.

In Davos this week, expect Soros to give the counterpoint to Angela Merkel and Mario Draghi's optimism on the eurozone.

I would think anyone who collaborated with the Nazis and feels no remorse for doing so would be considered evil.

Soros warning about the rise of evil?

Bwahahahahahahaha.

+1(almost laughable...if it weren't so pathetic)

Humanity will never learn it's lesson when it comes to allowing evil like this free-reign over a ignorant/gullible/pacifist society.

In other news: Adolf Hitler gave a dire warning about the rise of National Socialism.

“Watch out! The Nazis are going to invade Poland! They must be stopped! Buy a copy of my book to find out how!”

The top elites know about the collapse coming, they planned it and caused it and they are prepped for it.

Think of the chaos that will be unleashed when the truth about obama is known and becomes too much to ignore.

Evil himself has played collective white guilt and turned it into our financial melt down, along with greater racial tension and division, greater energy dependence, greater dependence on stretched beyond capacity social programs, etc., etc. and all by electing a virtual unknown to the Presidency.

Look out below...here we come!

Why is Soros still drawing breath? It is plain that his soul vacated long ago. Why does he plot and connive? There is no chance he will be present to witness anything come to fruition.

Nobody knows more about evil than Georgi.

He talks about economic collapse and evil as if he’s not part and parcel of the whole thing.

“Rise of evil”?

To a socialist, evil is defined as "opposition to socialism".

So he is formally announcing his endorsement of Obama again? Good is represented as bad and bad is represented as good. It is insane.Obama cannot win or we will lose America.I wish the GOP would just all SCREAM TO Obama tonight you’re a liar and walk out.They won’t because they are all in on the insider trading corruption side by side with the democrats.

We need to add more to this list-pronto!

"Soros insists the key to avoiding cataclysm in 2012 is not to let the crises of 2011 go to waste. “In the crisis period, the impossible becomes possible."

I'm sure it's just pure coincidence that the precise same sentiment was attributed to failed ballerina Rahm Emmanuel when he was serving as Obama's Henchman-in-Chief.

That does seem to be their (his and Obama's) plan for us.

Meh....in George Soros world public statements are lies he expects you to believe because they’ve been printed. His puppet Obama demonstrates this best. If what he was saying here was true, he’d be ecstatic; it’s how he makes his fortune. I see this proclamation as a sign things are not going Georgie Porgie’s way. I predict the doom predictions to increase in intensity commensurate with Newt’s rise.

According to an article posted on Drudge,a young Soros, fleeing from mainland Europe, found refuge in London and then New York. Both cities he later tried to destroy financially.

Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.
