Mr. Soros devoted much of his talk [at the Canadian International Council in Toronto] to China because the country’s rapid rise is taking place at the exact same time that the U.S. is losing its global economic dominance. “There is a really remarkable, rapid shift of power and influence from the United States to China,” Mr. Soros said, likening the U.S.’s decline to that of the U.K. after the Second World War. Because global economic power is shifting, Mr. Soros said China needs to change its focus. “China has risen very rapidly by looking out for its own interests,” he said. “They have now got to accept responsibility for world order and the interests of other people as well.” [Globe and Mail]

George Soros clubs baby seals. And likes it.
…Soros said tongue-in-cheek, as the decline of the US financially is his ultimate goal.
Poor George! The U.S., through greed and missteps, has shot itself in the foot. Now, you’re saying it’s China’s responsibility to stop our bleeding. That distant sound you hear is China saying F.O.!! Time to face the music. No one gets to stay at the top of the mountain forever.
George Soros wants to bone China, the wrestler?
I’m NOT saying that Soros is a communist, but, you know, a lot of people have expressed concerns. Let me repeat that: Soros’s record is very clear, but, you know, there’s been a lot of doubts mentioned by the MainStream media as to whether he is a secret Nazi.

Wow. I was thinking the exact same things!!!
And you know when flouridation first began? Nineteen hundred and forty-six. 1946. How does that coincide with your post-war Soros conspiracy, huh? It’s incredibly obvious, isn’t it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That’s the way your hard-core Commie works.
why the fuck does canada need an international council?

baby seals don’t export themselves
Imagine there’s no countries it isn’t hard to do. Nothing to kill or die for and no Forex too. Imagine no possessions, no need for greed or hunger, I wonder if you can. A brotherhood of socialists sharing all the world, I hope someday you will join us, and the world will be as one.
Mr. President, we are rapidly approaching a moment of truth both for ourselves as investors and for the life of our nation. If we were to immediately launch an all out and coordinated trade war on their currencies and export companies we’d stand a damn good chance of catching ‘em before they could hedge their risk. Now, the truth is not always a pleasant thing, but it is necessary now make a choice, to choose between two admittedly regrettable, but nevertheless distinguishable, post-trade war environments: one where you got twenty million jobs lost, and the other where you got a hundred and fifty million jobs lost.

It make sense that China has to focus inward for a time being because it’s still got a lot of problems at home.Still, many countries have benefited from China’s growth.

All these comments sound like they came from inmates in a mental institution! Very scary.
