Legalization will kill the profits from the big richies that are financing those big loads of drug smuggled to various countries in ships, planes, trains and trucks...Soros competition....not a bad move actually...

It was a good article. This thread is getting derailed, but thank you for attempting to right it.I had a feeling this thread would end up talking about conspiracy theorists and those who
discuss conspiracy theories on the radio or television.
Did anyone find this newspaper article insightful or enlightening in any way?
Did it present any new information that might help you understand a particular issue?
kind regards from guineapig
Thank you. It's getting ridiculous in this thread. Lets stay on point or move it to a new section. If the conspiracy crap keeps up I'm in favor of locking the thread.
Thank you for that. One of the more interesting things about Soros is that he's probably the most vilified billionaire on the planet, at least by the mouthpieces of other billionaires. They apparently don't like his ideas, at all, and it's easy to see why. Even if some of the posters here don't believe Soros, they apparently do.
What he has to say doesn't fit into slogans or soundbites, lacks feel good emotional punch entirely. OTOH, it has depth driven by a strong intellect. It's not light reading-
http://www.theatlantic.com/past/docs/issues/97feb/capital/capital.htm
Think of it what you will, but it's consistent with his actions.
I hope that's more in line with the topic. Obviously, Soros sets out to alter public opinion & events in more ways than one, support for cannabis legalization just being one of them. He doesn't do it with the raw emotionalism of the Right, at all. He tries to make you think, an exercise that some people resent quite deeply.
I confess to being a bit of a fan, not because he's rich, at all, but rather in spite of it. If his goals are to advance capitalistic greed, he's doing a piss poor job of it.
How many lives will be ruined when Soros collapses the US economy? Who cares if he donates money to legalization huh? Simple minds in here. I will continue to live my life clear of the devil, you guys can accept the devils money, enjoy.
Some Soros evil highlights for the ones that care to learn today.

These stories talk about George Collapsing at least 4 different economies, and betting 1.3 billion dollars on the collapse of the dollar. He also has recently started to bet against China's economy as well. The countries in which he collapsed the currency, experienced high crime rates and loss of wealth. Thousands, if not millions died as a result of the these economies crashing. All so this guy can make a little extra cash for his pocket, and control the puppets by making donations. Dance puppets, dance.

Gawd. You've made a leap of faith in believing that Soros has that kind of power. He doesn't. You confuse cause & effect, extrapolate from there.
Soros & other currency traders/ speculators merely try to anticipate & exploit market movements for their own benefit. They don't create them, at all. It's a form of gambling, like betting at the track. The winning horse is the winning horse, no matter whose money is where.
Some people are just better at it than others.
Soros didn't cause the Pound Sterling to fall, or any of the other currencies- he just bet that they would. He couldn't possibly have created the conditions where they would fall. He doesn't have that kind of power. Greed & stupidity at the governmental level created the circumstances, the inevitability of a large shift. That's what causes suffering among the populations involved, not who wins or loses in the currency market when the shift occurs.
Sheesh.
Currency, money, is a commodity like any other. Much of the activity is in futures. If I agree to buy an amount of anything at a given price on a future date, somebody else has agreed to selling at that price on that date. We make that agreement through differing opinion as to where the market will be when we get there. We don't make the market. We just live with the outcome. So do millions of others who weren't market players, people who provide or need & use the market commodity in question.
I'm done with this discussion. Why? Because in the minds of Believers, Faith conquers all. There is no rational counter to that.

Well said Jhhnn. Governments always try to push the value of their currencies up and currency traders call them on their b.s and knock the value down.
Bulldog please start using only first hand credible sites for your information. Look here for more info https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/588/02/
IHATEFOX is some other poster that is probably posting under this name. That is against forum rules FYI.
I shouldn't feel like I need to fashion a hat out of tin foil to read this thread. Lets clean it up!

Notice it's all about taxation and regulation.
Think for a moment, WHO gets all the money from the taxes and regulating fees?
I only read the first page... now I'll ho trad the rest.
Oh yeah, Soros is not a friend to any of us common folk...
Just a dick tater pushing for his turn.

To expand a bit on my above comment concerning the legislating of cannabis...
If the fedral government wanted to they could begin issuing tax stamps that have already been legislated for.
The whole reason cannabis is illegal in the US is becausetge gov refuses to issue said stamps.
There... taxations done...
There is zero need for any other "new" regulations at the federal level. All other regulation should be done on the State level.
However, regulate only that which falls within the commercial market... HA!!! A bkack market is unregulateable & is the reason a black market exists in the first place.
Therefore, the only option left for taking the money out of the drugs is to make them completely free from any legislation what so ever.
Lest we not forget that...
Absolute power corrupts absolutely

keen insight slim...
but it's not always about a dollar return with soro's
but he will gain from it in some way.
the hook with him is he's is a socialist anti semitic ideologue so money is merely a means to an end.
he get his monetary returns in other ways like destabilizing currencies and profiting from such activities
like he is currently doing to ours.
soro's has a definite agenda and he's been actively pursuing it with zeal of late with our own idealogue in the white house.
and he could care a shit less less about pot or the smokers unless its fitting into his agenda,
they will be tossed out with yesterdays coffee grounds when it's no longer an asset to soro's,
they are just a cog in his wheel whether it be monetarty or another class warfare tactic to divide and gain from it
or maybe a combination of both
if you knew exactly who soro's has funded and the reason(s) why
initially you'd be dumb founded as to why he's on the canna wagon.
until you conclude it's just a rung on his ladder.
in a nut shell
if you love socialism
soro's loves you... for a while
but if your true love is the next step from socialism
and you share the same dream
you have a job with benefits
Amen!
I agree he is a very successful capitalist because socialism cannot and will never afford to the masses the kind of opportunities to make that kind of wealth soros has.
and again he is an idealogue so money is the means to and end and capitalism affords that.
there are plenty of far left socialist that make their fortune thru capitalism
although not true ideologues like soros.
capitalism has made them their fortune in america,
they despise it and america for what it stands for.
and tow the socialist cause 24/7 completely ignorant of what the eventual true cost to us and them will be.
movie stars like decaprio, clooney and sean penn, matt damon come to mind.
LOL...unlike us little people they can afford to be socialists.
they prop up every socialist in power like obozo and socialist causes they can,
as long as it uses other peoples monies,
but they live in direct conflict with what they espouse for others....
whilst telling us to live in the socialist lifestyle, they do not.
these are what stalin/lenin coined as the *useful idiots* for the cause.
when the goal is attained
they are still idiots(and will finally realize it)
but no longer useful and out they go with yesterdays used coffee grounds.
this is what is happening with soros
getting involved with the med pot/ legalization issue.
as much as i want to see legalization to get into bed with soro's is a bad BAD idea,
trust me he will gain much more from the alliance than we will and in the end not only we
all will lose in a very big way.
as far as soros being jewish?
what's that got to do with anything other than he is a traitor and there has been many thru the ages like him.
to a socialist antisemitic idealogue like soros it doesn't matter 1 iota to betray anyone.
they eat their own in a NY minute in case you've not noticed.
I think you underestimate what a true idealogu like soros really is and how far he will go to achieve his goal.
the ends WILL ALWAYS justify the means to an idealogue
look at bin laden, a radical extremist muslim religious Idealogue.where did all his big money come from? and now that he is gone where is al qaida getting it?
thorugh capitalistics ventures
its beyond you because you don't think you comprehend what a true idealogue is jhhnn.
it fits like hand in glove when you realize the type idealogue soros is.
Ive studied history since I was teenager 40yrs ago and looking hitlers socialism and how he achieved his goals have eerie similarities to whats happening here right now.
the same with stalin.
seemingly mismatched alliances were made that made no sense on the surface,
as i said earlier, when no longer useful out they went UNLESS they were still of value in ideological terms still relevant to
the *common good and vision*
one who is intensely or excessively devoted to a cause <as long="" as="" there="" are="" <i="">ideologues controlling both sides of the aisle, legislative compromise is out of the question> Synonyms crusader, fanatic, ideologue (also idealogue), militant, partisan (also partizan), red hot, true believer
Related Words activist; idealist, visionary; cultist, disciple, follower, hanger-on, idolizer, votary; addict,
<the revolutionaries="" proved="" to="" be="" impractical="" <i=""></the></as>2
: an often blindly partisan advocate or adherent of a particular ideology
the fact soro's is an extreme antisemitic socialist and wants to spread it far and wide is delusional?
he is not a good person as humanity goes
his philanthropist deeds further his far left socialistic ideological visions whether readily apparent or not.
its easy to see many of those in the canna scene would be thrilled to be backed absolutely any anyone to further legalization.
the only difference is he could care less about the joys of medical or legal MJ and looks to further his base as does obozo giving away free cell phones and other peoples monies the those that don't know their being played.
my idea of delusional is people with very little understanding of history and the events currently in our own time can think anti semitic socialist ideologues the likes of soros would NOT do us any harm as it has in the last 100years....

If Soros is any of those things, you should be able to quote him on the subject, or at least provide links to sources not from Glenbeckistan. Have at it.
As I offered earlier, it's important not to let others' interpretations become our own w/o critical analysis on our part, without going to the source. In this case, that would be Soros himself & the organizations he funds. Clearly, you haven't done that.
