Longtime readers of MHProNews know that we’ve published more than one article that cast concerns about billionaire George Soros. That disclaimer noted, this is one of those classic cases of the need to separate the wheat from the chaff with all people, organizations, and things. There is good, bad, and meh to be found in all people and things. Because what follows comes with a tip of the hat to the Soros-funded “Open Secrets” platform. Why? Because it is data – not opinion – driven.

 

Per Open Secrets Center for Responsive Politics, the following is based upon the data obtained by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) data released on February 01, 2019.

Let’s note that MHProNews recognizes the right within the scope of the law and ethics of the MHI PAC to contribute to whomever.

Let’s further state that this pro-industry, pro-consumer, pro-growth industry trade platform similarly recognizes the right of individuals to do the same, within the framework of those same ethical and legal limits.

MHI is widely seen as being in the sway of a relatively small group of ‘big boy’ corporations. Chief among those is Warren Buffett led Berkshire Hathaway. Berkshire’s brands in MHVille include, but are not limited to, Clayton Homes, 21st Mortgage Corp, and Vanderbilt Mortgage and Finance.

See the related reports below for more insights on those operations.
