Project Death in America - pushing euthanasia, pretty creepy for a guy who worked with the Nazis as a teen, and guess what - he aims his projects at minority groups "needing" mercy killing:

...
The mission of PDIA is to understand and transform the culture and experience of dying through initiatives in research and scholarship, the arts and humanities, through innovations in provision of care, through public and professional education and through public policy [www.soros.org/death]. PDIA is a programme of the Open Society Institute, a non-profit foundation created by George Soros to support the development of open societies worldwide [www.soros.org]. Mr Soros established the project because of his own experiences with the death of his parents.
....
One of the underlying principles of all of the efforts of the Project on Death in America is to focus attention on the needs of vulnerable populations and to better understand the obstacles they encounter in pursuit of appropriate end-of-life care.Increasing numbers of prisoners are dying without access to compassionate release. PDIA—together with another Open Society Institute programme, Crime, Community and Culture—sponsored two national meetings on dying in prisons and jails, and developed a short documentary on the development of a hospice programme in Angola Prison6. As a result of these efforts, there are a series of ongoing initiatives to advance the care of dying prisoners and make available to them appropriate pain and palliative care measures through the development of guidelines, educational initiatives for prison healthcare professionals, and policy changes.Through its African-American initiative, PDIA has identified specific barriers to the provision of end-of-life care for minorities7. PDIA is supporting the development of a network of collaborative organizations to identify the barriers and find ways to improve care for African Americans.

Soros has attributed his interest in this issue to his late father. In an interview with the New Yorker (January 23, 1995), Soros recounted his father's battle with cancer and voiced disapproval at the senior Soros's unwillingness to die. According to Soros, his father "...unfortunately wanted to live... I was kind of disappointed in him ... I wrote him off." George Soros's promotion of death can also be traced to his mother, who as a member of the Hemlock Society (a pro suicide organisation committed suicide.

Project Death in America (PDIA) is a grant making foundation that supports euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide. Its mission is "to transform the culture of dying." Soros has acknowledged that "legalizing euthanasia could have unintended consequences, leading to all kind of abuses ... but... aggressive, life-prolonging interventions, which may at times go against the patient's wishes, are much more expensive..."

In 1995 the PDIA funded 43 programs, and it selected 13 faculty scholars "to begin forming a network of doctors that will eventually reach into one-fourth of America's hospitals and lead to ... the creation of innovative models of care and the development of new curricula on dying." The Director of PDIA is Kathleen M. Foley, M.D., who is the chief of pain service at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Some PDIA-funded programs appear to do little more than enlist the forces of political correctness in the new approach towards death. According to the Open Society Institute's site on the Intemet, "Health Force: Women and Men Against AIDS" helps grieving individuals write "Dear Death" letters as a way of coming to terms with their loss. Native Americans are served by a PDIA grant to the Ellen Stephen Hospice. which has been funded to expand its services at South Dakota's Pine Ridge Indian Reservation to become a national model for Native Americans.

.....
As with the campaign for "medical marijuana," euthanasia is depicted as an act of compassion for the individual against the ignorance and bigotry of society. This tactic easily fits the preconceptions of the media habituated to portraying political and legal challenges to existing prohibitions as reform movements. "The holocausts of the 2Oth century," writes scholar David Walsh in an excellent essay, The Compassion Juggernaut, "have all been committed by people who saw themselves as humanitarians. Compassion has been the road to unlimited cruelty."

In November 1996. the Open Society Institute's web site reported on Soros ' Project Death. It noted that "the Institute of Medicine of the National Institutes of Health, with PDIA's urging and support, held its first meeting on care at the end of life. Its examination and evaluation of the quality of care for the terminally ill will result in recommendations to policy makers and practitioners on steps to be taken to improve the delivery of services." (The "services" referred to are assisted suicide.)

Oh yeah, he's also anti-capitalist, anti-America as a world power. He has a project aiming at doing away with elected judges in America .... elected judges aren't as likely to legislate liberal ideas from the bench. He wants the FCC to regulate talk radio and cable news. He's for open borders.

Soros is a very creepy guy .... like some kind of fictional megalomaniac .... and its alarming he has such influence on a major American party.

Bentway, > Give me some "evil" deeds by George Soros, please.

- Wants to get kids hooked on drugs.
- Thwarts anti-terrorism enforcement at every turn.
- Helped pass campaign finance reform just before getting around the new laws.
- Supports the early release of murders, serial rapists, and other violent criminals.
- Finances anti-American groups like La Raza and The Muslim Brotherhood.
- Regularly manipulates the value of currencies such as the pound, the euro, and even the dollar.
- Is on the record saying that America is the greatest threat to his ideals of a new world order.

> While your at it, some evil deeds by Bill Gates and Warren Buffet.

Who said they were "evil"?

My point is that you LOVE the filthy rich when they are on "your side." Makes you just as much of a "sell out" as you like to accuse others of being.
