Boom! Allen West makes the case Obama intentionally trying to overload the welfare system

Talking with Greta tonight, Allen West made the case by looking at the dependency trends in our economy of why he believes Obama is intentionally trying to overload the welfare system, just as Cloward and Piven suggested.

Watch:

Well, I think that we have to stop saying that the president’s economic policies are failing and we start looking at really what the trend is. We’re seeing an incredible growth of the welfare nanny state, We’re seeing the poverty roles explode. We’re seeing the food stamp roles explode. We’re seeing more dependency on the government largess and programs. Look at what just happened kicking part-time workers off of their health care insurance plans. We’re seeing a desperation and a despondency out there that’s being created by this administration.

And it caused me to go back and read about the Cloward/Piven strategy of Richard Cloward and Francis Fox Piven who were Columbia University professors. (And it just so happened that the president went to Columbia.)

They talked about overloading the welfare system to a point where it would collapse, you would cause such chaos and then you would have to move from a welfare system to almost a national income system. And when you think about this 11th extension of unemployment benefits, it’s almost like the federal government’s trying to pay people not to get out there and participate in the job market.

[Food stamps going up] is a sign of failure, but is it intentional failure? You think about this. When you have a federal government that’s using taxpayer dollars to advertise for people to go on food stamps, not just here in the United States of America, but they were also doing it south of the border in Mexico.

And the republican party of Florida INTENTIONALLY redistricted this man out of office! Because he was a danger to the establishment and their plans.

Get ‘em all of the “take” as quick as he can. He needs to keep them dependent on the gubmint and on the reservation or plantation or where ever he can to control them.

By cutting the welfare, he only opens the door for those who take all the “Free S&it” to turn on him. To odumbo, the more on the take, the merrier.

Republicans have only delayed catastrophe.

Can’t think of anything, but for the endless rhetoric, that has stopped anything and certainly nothing is even close to being reversed.

Barking Boehner and Canine Cantor have wet on a few fence posts, but have been utterly toothless.

If they really wiped out poverty, how would democrats get elected?

I mean do the republicans really need someone to explain this to them?

The democrats want as many alienated minorities in poverty as possible, that IS their election base.

Yup, exactly what BO is doing the healthcare system as well with Obamacare... destroy the system beyond repair, never to be rebuilt, and only replaced with socialized medicine.

I've made this case to many democrat voters. What would the democrats run on if our economy was growing at 6%, unemployment (real unemployment) was down around 5%, and real inflation was only around 2%? The answer is, they would erroneously demonize the national success as "jobless recovery" or "low wage job creation" or "on the backs of the poor and minorities". We know, because it's in the history books.

They only succeed for two reasons. 1) Low info voters don't care on way or another, especially when things are good. 2) The media feeds the LIVs the propaganda dished out by the democrat party.

Only the states can stop this with constitutional amendments now.

McCain said we have nothing to fear from an Obama presidency. What an absolute ass.

This president is attacking me personally. He's attacking me, my family and my standard of living as no one ever has. This POS, who has never created or even held a real job in his life, is purposely taking away the advantages my wife and I have worked for years to attain.

Two more years of this marxist jerk and he will have succeeded. Provided the gutless GOP continue to acquiesce.

The same Allen West who voted in favor of the indefinite detention without trial of American citizens (NDAA 2011)?

The same Allen West who voted in favor of redistribution of wealth to the Black Caucus and their constituents (the Pigford USDA vote)?

The same Allen West who publicly stated on Facebook he wants “Justice for Trayvon©”?

The same Allen West who did such a pathetic job on contesting the fraudulent election that it cost him his seat?

The same Allen West who was shown The Cold Case Posse’s evidence on the forged Obama birth certificate, the false SS #, and the phony Selective Service Registration, said he agreed with the evidence 100%, he thinks the documents are forged, BUUUUT ....he said he would not publicly endorse the findings “...because he wanted a future in politics”?

THAT Allen West?
