George Soros’ Two Cents

wouldn’t it make sense for Mr. Soros to make at least some reference to what happened in 1971? ... America defaulted on the dollar. The gold exchange standard that had been operated since Bretton Woods was abandoned. Now a lot of people, including Mr. Soros, made a lot of money in the chaos that followed. ... What Mr. Soros and his fellow sages should be saying is that long-term full employment is not going to return to Britain until it restores itself to a system of sound and honest money. By the way, we’d say the same thing to Ukraine and its striving millions. Their hunger for freedom and democracy is inspiring. But to scramble to get onto the European Union is to seek to clamber aboard a raft that is caught in a whirlpool.
