George Soros’ real crusade: Legalizing marijuana in the U.S
Washington Times ^ | April 2, 2014 | Kelly Riddell

Billionaire philanthropist George Soros hopes the U.S. goes to pot, and he is using his money to drive it there. With a cadre of like-minded, wealthy donors, Mr. Soros is dominating the pro-legalization side of the marijuana debate by funding grass-roots initiatives that begin in New York City and end up affecting local politics elsewhere.

“The pro-legalization movement hasn’t come from a groundswell of the people. A great deal of its funding and fraud has been perpetrated by George Soros and then promoted by celebrities,” said John Walters, director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy under George W. Bush. “The truth is under attack, and it’s an absolutely dangerous direction for this country to be going in.”

It sounds like one of the weirder causes. It might actually cut crime.

Please, focus all your attention on legalizing pot, Mr. Soros. You’re doing too much damage elsewhere.

George Soros real crusade is to make a lot of money by buying up distressed assets and then waiting for them to recover value - that’s why he backs liberal-progressive causes so enthusiastically - he understands that they can only result in economic and financial disaster, giving him a wider market to chose from.....

This is precisely why they are determined to do it.

Stoned sheep are even easier to herd.

If it is legalized, he’d open up a bunch of pot shops and make a killing.

You bet - and unfortunately I’ve seen it firsthand with some others that I want nothing to do with. It’s absolutely sickening!

"If it is legalized, he’d open up a bunch of pot shops and make a killing."

If opens some around here I'll open a shop next to it and sell Twinkies and Doritos and other snack goodies and make even more of a killing!
