POSTED BY CABO IN 2009 -In order to make any sense out of the bizarre spending policies of the Obama administration, you have to take time to study the Cloward/Piven strategy. Cloward and Piven were radical political scientists at Columbia in the mid-60's.
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... http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=6967 Search Cloward Piven.....Click Cloward Piven Strategy
The Cloward/Piven Strategy advocates forcing change through crisis. What do you think TOTV posters, beginning to sound familiar. The radical duo called for bankrupting the welfare system by forcing more and more entitlements. Cities were targeted to "flood-the-rolls", break the public coffers and create chaos. The idea was to collapse our entire system of government and pave the way for pure socialism.
Activist groups pushing the Cloward/Piven scheme popped up in cities across the country. One such group, the National Welfare Rights Organization (NWRO), founded by African-American militant George Alvin Wiley, was successful in the bankrupting of New York City in 1975. Other groups were formed led by guess who?????? Would you believe a cult called A.C.O.R.N
These movements rely heavily on financial support from...guess who?????
Would you have guessed George Soros?
In its earliest form, the Cloward-Piven strategy applied Alinsky's principle to the specific area of welfare entitlements. It counseled activists to create what might be called Trojan Horse movements - mass movements whose outward purpose seemed to be providing material help to the downtrodden, but whose real purpose was to draft poor people into service as revolutionary foot soldiers.http://cloward-piven.com/
Oh... it doesn't stop there. The mobilization of the masses to over burden government resources provided a perfect storm that was parlayed into "voter rights" movements in urban areas. These movements are identified with voter registration campaigns, aided by unions and are tainted with corruption, fraud, bullying and intimidation by union thugs and other despicable un-American tactics. Hmmm....do you remember recent elections and tea parties tainted by Black Panther Party intimidation and union bulls beating a black man? Of course the Republican Party was the beneficiary of all this mobilization. Just testing to see if you are paying attention.
TOTV posters, do not assume that the economic blunders of the Obama administration are the product of inexperience. That is what they want you to think. Try viewing them through the prism of the Cloward/Piven Strategy tempered with Sal Alinsky and Karl Marx.
The bank busting, economy destroying Obama Healthcare Plan, Cap and Trade (TAX) suddenly makes more sense when connected with the Cloward/Piven Strategy. In one swoop, the goal of bankrupting and collapsing the system will be achieved. Call me crazy but from my abstract, minority perspective, there seems to be some insidious logic in the process.
Hmmmm.....(thinking out loud) How does the Great Global Warming Fraud fit into this equation?
Any defenders of Cloward/Pivens who care to make their case....by all means...go for it. Opposing views always welcome and on occasion, intentionally provoked.
There are copious references to Cloward/Piven on line. I've paraphrased a few and supplemented them with my own views and words. I like one that appears, although I am not certain, to come from A.C.O.R.N. http://cloward-piven.com/

Google is a wonderful thing. Have fun with Cloward/Piven
It has been almost two years since I made this post. I welcomed opposing views and defenders of the Obama administration to respond. Debate is healthy. Funny thing.......no takers in almost two years. Soooo.....anyone else see a pattern yet or like Don Quixote, am I tilting with windmills......no disrespect to the green energy crowd intended......naaaa.....it was intended. That is for another post of its own.
Does "flooding the roles" with illegal immigrants, am I allowed to use that term, accomplish the Cloward-Piven goal to "break the public coffers and create chaos. The idea was to collapse our entire system of government and pave the way for pure socialism."
What a target rich environment to debate the liberal left.....but....no takers....yet. My mother, a Boston Democrat worked on JFK's campaign. My father was a Goldwater conservative. Table talk was always interesting. I learned tolerance and respect for all views, even those inconsistent with my own.
I'm headed for the bunker now.
