George Soros, Mastercard to partner to aid migrants, refugees [Obamacards for Illegals]
Reuters ^ | 1/19/17

Posted on 01/19/2017 7:20:05 AM PST by markomalley

Billionaire investor George Soros will partner with Mastercard Inc on a venture they said could help migrants, refugees and others struggling within their communities worldwide to improve their economic and social status.

The partnership, Humanity Ventures, stems from a pledge Soros made in September to earmark up to $500 million for investments to address challenges facing migrants and refugees.

In a joint statement on Thursday, Mastercard and Soros said that despite billions of dollars of humanitarian and development assistance, millions of people remain marginalized, a situation the private sector can help rectify.

Thanks for the heads up. Usually I ignore those offers from Discover and Visa to transfer my balances but I will do so now.

So, he gives 500 million, so 1 million refugees can buy a $500 gun.

A lot of refugees will be needing a Mastercard after Trump sends them packing from America.

Yeah, this move could provide us with a lot of amusement and merriment when they go home and default on their cards.

A few thoughts:

1) Business used to be focused on customers and investors. Can anyone name me a business where the prime focus is the customer and how they are doing? My local credit union is constantly promoting charity and asking me to match it.

2) The good news is that all of these efforts and money will not solve the problem because it is not designed to. In the mean time, I think Trump will..................

I’m just waiting to see a TV commercial with George Soros in his three piece suit, turning to the camera and asking;
“What’s in YOUR wallet?”.

We use a charge card solely for the rewards and pay the balance off every month.

There are other cards at least as good as the Mastercard we have been using so it will be heading for the shredder as soon as we can get accounts set up to use a different card.

Soros has trained his kids to continue his Satanic evil “career” after he’s finally dead. The only solution is to convert his filthy lucre into a “victims of soros compensation fund” -—to put an end to the harm and try to make up for some of the damage he’s done

Don’t use MasterCard, so I don’t have one to cut up. I hope the blow-back is painful for them.

Still marginalized after all that monetary attention? Sounds like a money pit. Right now, I feel rather marginalized as a Conservative Christian male. I haven't received any aid so far.

Maybe they could work up an exception to the “corruption of blood” clause in Article 3 for this case.

I hope not. RICO cases take time to do properly.

Didn’t Obama give 500 million to someone aimed at climate change? Hmmm.

When you all get those solicitations in the mail inviting you to sign-up for a new MasterCard, and they come with a prepaid return envelope....

You know what to do.
