George Soros is ‘very proud’ to have enemies

Mr. Soros has views that gain him enemies — and he appears to like it. Andrew sat down with the billionaire philanthropist, former trader and liberal champion in his New York City apartment to talk about next year’s elections, taxing the rich and putting Wall Street in its place.

Mr. Soros likes Senator Elizabeth Warren’s chances of becoming the Democratic nominee, saying that she has “emerged as the clear-cut person to beat.” (Though he didn’t go as far as endorsing her as a candidate.)

“I am in favor of taxing the rich,” he said, “including a wealth tax.” That lines up with one of Ms. Warren’s central policies, but Mr. Soros acknowledges that his view “does create a moral problem for me.” He added: “As I became so successful, it basically put a self-imposed constraint on me that actually interfered with making money.”
