For many it is simply a practical matter of eliciting votes from a targeted constituency at taxpayer expense; we lose a little, they gain a lot, and the politician keeps his job. But for others, the goal is more malevolent - the failure is deliberate. Don't laugh. This method not only has its proponents, it has a name: the Cloward-Piven Strategy. It describes their agenda, tactics, and long-term strategy. The Strategy was first elucidated in the May 2, 1966 issue of The Nation magazine by a pair of radical socialist Columbia University professors, Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven. David Horowitz summarizes it as: The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse. Cloward and Piven were inspired by radical organizer [and Hillary Clinton mentor] Saul Alinsky: "Make the enemy live up to their (sic) own book of rules," Alinsky wrote in his 1989 book Rules for Radicals. When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judeo-Christian moral tenet, and every implicit promise of the liberal social contract, human agencies inevitably fall short. The system's failure to "live up" to its rule book can then be used to discredit it altogether, and to replace the capitalist "rule book" with a socialist one. (Courtesy Discover the Networks.org) |

They do not "adhere to our enemies"... they *are* our enemies, by their own declarations and admissions. It is Conspiracy - they are each and every one willfully and purposefully destructive of our government and society, and act in conspiracy to create a destruction so great as to crumble our nation and all that depends upon its stability. Further, they act with the full knowledge that their actions will visit widespread death upon our society, particularly among those most vulnerable - children, the elderly, the handicapped, and those whose lives are dependent upon continuing medical care (diabetics, those on dialysis, etc) - this is conspiracy to commit mass murder. TREASON CONSPIRACY MURDER That's why they must all be put to the rope, every last one of them, whether they are unemployed or a senior official in government or industry... BattlesightZero YOU, and only YOU are responsible for maintaining the balance of power between you and the rest of the semi-sentient beings in this world. You cannot disclaim or delegate that responsibility; it is a function of being a living, breathing "adult" in this world. If you can't manage yourself on those terms, someone else *will* manage you on their terms. Your terms are irrelevant. Buy a rifle; prepare to defend yourself. If you don't, what happens is *your* fault. Period. |

Interesting that Cloward and Piven were married and were both professors at the Columbia University School of Social Work. And where did Barry graduate from? Columbia University in 1983. This is a article written in 2005. [link to www.discoverthenetworks.org] In their 1966 article, Cloward and Piven charged that the ruling classes used welfare to weaken the poor; that by providing a social safety net, the rich doused the fires of rebellion. Poor people can advance only when "the rest of society is afraid of them," Cloward told The New York Times on September 27, 1970. Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, wrote Cloward and Piven, activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system; the collapse of the welfare state would ignite a political and financial crisis that would rock the nation; poor people would rise in revolt; only then would "the rest of society" accept their demands. The more I study and research...the clearer the picture becomes. |

No strategy. Clloward & Piven are being blamed for the Obama strategy. It's the 21st century. Generals and Cabinet are struggling with misconduct and gross incompetence. But it's actually the anti terror media front causing the shames innit? |
