"The Cloward - Piven Strategy - eyewitness account of its unveiling at Socialist Scholars Conference
the real barack obama ^ | 6/26/10 | Trevor Loudon "
Are they burning in hell yet?
Back in the mid 80’s I worked next to the welfare office. The secretary quit because she became so upset that the welfare checks coming across her desk were more than her own working salary. If that was 25 years ago, I can only imagine how much they’re raking in today.
Don’tcha just think brainwashing is a more realistic answer?
Its doable.
Simply create all new depts. of govt. instead of trying to imporve the old ones which would never happen.
don't fund the old dept.s and create all new ones with leadership that are not govt. career people.
Done correctly the federal budget could be balanced or have a surplus almost immediately.
Brainwashing has its limitations. Unless it is constantly reinforced, it tends to degenerate.
What stands out about liberalism-leftism are several very clinical behaviors. First of all, they tend to share very similar irrational ideas, something which is seen in other clinical mental illness, such as the tin foil hat wearers. Why do they all do it the same way? It implies a similar, organic reason.
Second, they can neither be persuaded of the irrationality of their ideas, nor can repeated demonstration of those ideas failing dissuade them. No sense of pattern recognition.
Third, a whole slew of their ideas seem to be self-destructive in nature. They despise safe and noble behavior and encourage high risk, dangerous and even murderous behavior. Their friends are treated as enemies, and their enemies as friends. They are deeply critical of important elements to their lives, like energy, self defense, and healthy social behavior.
In other words, like they are on a path to destruction, and want to take as many with them as they can. Just like a rat attracted to the smell of cat urine.
That should have been the GOP talking points during the campaign but noooo, McRat was too busy campaigning for the communist usurper.
They will, when Americans truly kick them where it hurts.
” I look around at what’s happening, the lunatic spending, the partying while our coastline is destroyed, the attempt to shut down energy production, and constant shovelling of money at the unproductive, the specter of new taxes on those who are already paying...
I can’t disagree with what’s so obvious. A lot of people seem to not want to imagine such a thing being done by our president, so they just don’t think about it. “
Well, YOU aren’t fooled are you?
Every inch of this has been planned.
bump
This article should be sent to ALL congress critters. IMO, They are clueless as to what they are dealing with....Time to enlighten them!
Seriously doubt if any of them have even heard of Clowan-Piven.
Years ago a group of students went to Chicago from our small rural school. The bus driver took a wrong turn and we ended up in the Southside ghetto.
The kids witnessed broken windows, rats running everywhere, a small child eating out of a garbage can...Poverty.
When we got home one of the boys wrote: "I thought we were poor, but I've never been hungry: We have a large garden, raise chickens and a hog. Plus, dad and I are good shots. Our home has a dirt floor covered by linoleum but the wood stove keeps us warm.
POVERTY IS RELATIVE>>>A COUNTRY BOY WILL SURVIVE!
OK Usually I ping. Not much more. This time though,
I BEG - PLEASE POST THIS TO FACEBOOK, PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!
Please.
Good read...thank you...although there are certainly pockets of the poor in our country. On the whole you are correct saying our so called “poverty” in this country lives very well. How it is used and abused by politicians is demeaning to those who truly suffer.
BUMP
I was reading “Witness” this time last year. One of the most powerful books I’ve ever read.
My favorite quote:
“Thus men who sincerely abhorred the word Communism, in the pursuit of common ends found that they were unable to distinguish Communists from themselves, except that it was the Communists who were likely to be most forthright and most dedicated in the common cause. For men who could not see that what they firmly believed was liberalism added up to socialism could scarcely be expected to see what added up to Communism. Any charge of Communism enraged them precisely because they could not grasp the differences between themselves and those against whom it was made.”
Was this quote part of the letter to his children? btw, took me days before I could read the entire letter.....it hit me hard.
I tell people if they don’t have time to read the book to PLEASE read the letter.
Sorry, redhead. Last post was to you. Don’t know how I posted to myself!
Yes, it was. I read the letter twice. It was profound.
"Witness" is hardly a strong enough word to describe what he wrote in this book. I may never finish reading it. Like Thomas a' Kempis' "Imitation of Christ," when I reach the last word on the last page, I just turn the book over and start it again. These are words that feed our souls and strengthen them for the battle ahead. Chambers made enormous sacrifices to come out of Communism. Thank God he left us this book.
