I agree with your premise. The problem is, in our Republic once the gib-me-dats start living off of the government dole, they become incapable of awakening to the peril this dependency drags along with it. Eventually, the gib-me-dats slaughter the golden goose if the eggs cease to roll to their door. hTe Cloward & Piven strategy is based upon the dependency becoming unmanageable, thus collapsing the system so the commie-socialist devils can refashion the society. The refashioned society is always totalitarian in the end, but the gib-me-dats are not capable of reasoning it through to the conclusions or even recognizing the Historic examples of thedestruction. The system steamrolls the dependents into oblivion once they have served the evil purpose.
The weak minded, those who choose to follow, the ones who would rather have others think for them, the ones who lack willpower, the sheep in other words, will ALWAYS end up being led to the slaughterhouse by the wolves who have learned how to think for themselves, and know how to feed themselves.
