Don't worry about it. Money can't buy minds. <<Soros' combining religion, being on a "holy mission", a bunch of corporations & connections, many "PR tools", and billions of dollars is scarier and more dangerous than anything I've ever seen in my entire life. >> Hillary spent a $billion to get elected. Trump did it on a shoestring. He won, she lost. 20 years ago I was an avid supporter of Act [a political party in NZ]. We did great for several years. Then the rich, arrogant, self-adulating took over as "experienced" politicians. I opposed them. But they [Don Brash, Richard Prebble and co] thought they were big shots. Act spent big heaps on half page newspaper advertisements and lots more besides. What I saw in the advertisement was: "We are rich, arrogant, presumptuous, want to be the boss, think you are suckers, vote for us so our self-adulation can be enhanced". The general public seemed to see the same thing in the advertisements though that wasn't what was actually written. Act's vote went way down to homeopathic levels. Soros can spend all the money he has and lose votes, not get them. Mqurice
