#1 Massively misleading 'headline' - Soros is interested in 'pro-democracy' movements like Harvey Weinstein's into a chaste lifestyle.

Rich Socialists Love Tax Evasion, what?

#3 It's different when a liberal does tax 'evasion', apparently.

For what it's worth you can't carry charitable contributions back on a U.S. Federal 1040 tax return but the unused amount does carry forward and it's limited on the years that it's used.

#4 The Open Society Foundations promote Communism, not democracy.

#5 It's all about legacy. Everything he does sucks up money. He picks up the tab every time. This is how countries operate. You want to cause trouble you spend money. They were going to arrest King but the deal was canceled. His funding was from the communists. Soros has done the same thing. The problem is the balloon stays inflated as long as the money comes in. He has his own welfare dependent people. I wonder what return on his investment is expected. Trump has set him back years.

#6 Let's hope the reason is that he just got news of his impending demise. He wants to make sure his legacy of evil maintains.

#10 Soros is a communist and was a Nazi. As a, jewish, boy in hungary he turned in his jewish neighbors to the germans. He is a pig.
