Since the list of recipients is so long, I have broken-down the list in smaller chuncks so you can see what a wide influence George Soros has over YOUR lives. If you've never hear of him, you should start finding out about him. He is one of the key figures in the "Transformation of America" today.

Professing an unquestioning faith in the righteousness of the United Nations, it aims to bring American foreign policy under UN control.
