One thing a bit odd about Soros is the extremely high complexity of interlocking "foundations" and "initiatives" that he has going, many of them humanitarian in title, yet involved in nations where daily corruption is the norm. Yet he calls his orgs things like "Open Society Initiative" and throws the "transparency" buzz-word around in places where it doesn't even make any sense. It would take 1,000 auditors to figure out what's going on in there. Is that on purpose? Someon wanting to check this out might first evaluate whether Soros' foundations (Yes, there are dozens of them) are structured quite differently from other well-known living philanthropists, and ask "Now why is that?"

I got the same impression - the rat's maze of organizations might be an effective way to move money around. Strange.
