Maximizing Investment

Multi-billionaire George Soros has invested heavily in climate change and he's keen to see a return on his investment.

While Des Moines, Iowa, saw its earliest measurable snowfall and farmers in the Midwestern states prayed that their corn crop was ripe enough for harvest with a growing season cut short by cold weather, Mr. Soros is pushing governments to force their citizens to accept global warming as real, and pay for it.

He's putting $1 billion of his hard earned cash into investments that would help "solve" the global warming problem, and he's open to anything that would be profitable.

Of course.

To that end, he's founding the Climate Policy Initiative in San Francisco with a grant of $10 million per year for ten years.

The Climate Policy Initiative, wealthy and thus powerful, would be used like a hammer to pound down resistance to climate change scepticism. Huge sums of money will be thrown at elected representatives who would then be expected to sit in government and draw up laws that would promote the use of that which Mr. Soros has invested in.

Shivering in your Minnesota home, you might find that your Congressman has promoted legislation to build wind farms in Eden Prairie, paid for by your tax dollars, and it's for your own good because the world is getting dangerously warm.

What chance do you have against Soros' billions? Sure he's only out to make more money, and he's gambled on global warming...sorry, it's now called climate change because everyone's pretty much figured out that it's not getting warmer around here, it's getting colder.

Those billions won't go towards research on the effect of sun spot activity on the planet's climate. Unless Mr. Soros invests in nuclear power or heating oil or furnace manufacturers.
