Obama’s Cloward-Piven Weapon of Mass Destruction
theblaze.com ^ | 10/15/14 | Wayne Root

Posted on 10/16/2014 7:30:02 PM PDT by keats5

Do you ever get the feeling everyone is in on a joke, except you? That maybe you are the punchline? That everyone is secretly laughing at you?

Well the joke is on America. Obama and his socialist cabal are in on the joke. Illegal aliens are in on the joke. The only ones left out are the rest of us- law-abiding American-born citizens and taxpayers. We are the joke. And everyone knows it…but us.

Do you see the picture above? It was taken yesterday by my friend- a U.S. border agent. He texted it to me- direct from the processing center. It shows an illegal alien he just caught wearing a shirt with his hero’s name on the back- OBAMA.

This is an every day occurrence my border agent friend tells me. Obama is the secret password that goes with the secret handshake. Obama is the secret sauce that guarantees entry to the U.S. Obama is the friend, hero, messiah and savior to every poverty stricken foreigner illegally sneaking over the border. Everyone, everywhere in the world knows this…but the American people. The joke is on us.

I am Barack Obama’s classmate at Columbia University, Class of ’83. We were taught a plan back then to collapse the U.S. economy and destroy this country. It was called “Cloward-Piven” (named after a husband and wife professor team at Columbia). The Cloward-Piven plan involved using spending, entitlements, debt and crisis after crisis to overwhelm the system, distract and overwhelm the citizens, and cause the collapse of America. At that point the people would be on their knees begging for big government to save them from drowning. They’d willingly accept a socialist Nanny State without argument or debate under duress.

People agree to all kinds of terrible things while their lives and survival hangs in the balance. Panic causes bad decision-making. That’s the key- panic and duress. With your job gone, income gone, or facing a massive 9-11-like terrorist attack, or devastating Ebola pandemic, the country is in a panic. “Cloward-Piven” counted on the citizenry making a very bad decision under duress- choosing the very group that destroyed your life (government) as your savior.

Don’t look now but it’s happening. America is crumbling- and it all comes back to the border and those illegal aliens celebrating Obama. This is no mistake. This is no coincidence. This is a plan.

Obama only has two years left to completely destroy America. He knows as of days from now he’ll probably be dealing with a Republican Senate, as well as an expanded GOP House. He knows there is a good chance he’ll face impeachment hearings. He knows that his presidency is effectively over as of November 4th- he will never pass another bill.

So things have to be accelerated. He must spend his last two years bypassing the Congress. He must find a way to collapse our economy without the need for any laws, bills or cooperation.

The answer is…THE BORDER.

Every single thing that could overwhelm the economy, incite panic and bring Americans to our knees emanates from the border. I call this triumvirate of disaster B.E.T.- Bankruptcy, Ebola and Terrorism. Those are the 3 wild cards that change everything…the 3 “Black Swans” that overwhelm the system…that have the potential to bring our economy down- just as Cloward-Piven intended.

The key is Congress is powerless to stop these tragic events from spiraling out of control. The wide open border is Obama’s “Cloward Piven” ticket to destroy America without any need for cooperation from Congress. This is the ultimate WMD- Weapon of Mass Destruction.

Anyone can walk across Obama’s wide open border. Thousands of illegal immigrants are walking across every day. This is fact. They are uneducated, desperately poor and speak no English. Obama assigns them lawyers with taxpayer money. We spend billions on legal fees and court appearances. They get myriad forms of handouts from taxpayers- food stamps, housing allowances, aid to dependent children, free meals at school, free education, free healthcare…and don’t forget prison and police costs for their crimes. This is the bankruptcy of America. This is how you overwhelm the system. This is how you bypass Congress. This is why illegals wear Obama shirts and shorts and sneakers.

But that’s only the start of what a wide open border brings to America. Terrorist cells from ISIS are free to walk across that border. One massive terrorist attack like 9-11, with our economy in such terrible shape at the moment, could overwhelm the economy and trigger the collapse of our country literally overnight. Isn’t that a fast-track to achieve Cloward-Piven’s dream?

Then there’s the third wild card that comes from an open border. Foreigners sick with Ebola are free to walk across that border. One single Ebola case costs over a million dollars. One. Can you imagine the cost of thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, even millions of Ebola cases? It’s unimaginable, unaffordable and unsustainable for the U.S. economy.

The government just announced a second case of Ebola in a healthcare worker this morning. But this is only the start. ISIS could be sending Ebola-infected victims over the border right now- to disperse throughout our communities and cause pandemic, panic and death.

Or an Ebola pandemic could explode in Mexico, Central and South America. Sick and frightened citizens of those countries could invade our border by the millions looking to escape the pandemic, or use the U.S. healthcare system to save themselves. Isn’t this Cloward-Piven’s dream?

Why would any sane leader leave our border wide open for attack, invasion, or pandemic? Only a madman would gamble with our lives…our children’s lives…and the entire American economy. Only a madman refuse to guard us against a possible WMD attack that could overwhelm the U.S. economy. Why would President Obama play “Russian Roulette” with the future of our country? Is he unstable? Or is this a purposeful plan?

Any American who isn’t blind can see something is very wrong. It’s time for patriots, political and military leaders to speak up. Our President is clearly reckless, irresponsible, incompetent, unstable, or evil. Regardless of the reason, for the sake of our families, and our physical and economic survival, it’s time to remove Obama from office.

Now…before it’s too late. Before he gets us all killed by a “Cloward Piven” Weapon of Mass Destruction.

Cloward and Piven

Clinton signing Motor-Voter in 1993 with Cloward and Piven in the background.

They've been at this for a long time. It's time we stop it.

I share all your concerns. IMHO, the true test will come in the 2016 Presidential elections...if we have one. Will we be so divided, so uncivil or combative as a nation that Obama will enact all those executive orders he has stashed away.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloward–Piven_strategy

The Cloward–Piven strategy is a political strategy outlined in 1966 by American sociologists and political activists Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven that called for overloading the U.S. public welfare system in order to precipitate a crisis that would lead to a replacement of the welfare system with a national system of "a guaranteed annual income and thus an end to poverty".

See 1934 Chicago Tribune Political Cartoon (32 years Pre-Cloward–Piven nothing new here @ )

From: Discover the Networks, The Cloward-Piven Strategy.(CPS)

"First proposed in 1966 and named after Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and his wife Frances Fox Piven (both longtime members of the Democratic Socialists of America, where Piven today is an honorary chair), 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.

Inspired by the August 1965 riots in the black district of Watts in Los Angeles (which erupted after police had used batons to subdue a black man suspected of drunk driving), Cloward and Piven published an article titled "The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty" in the May 2, 1966 issue of The Nation. Following its publication, The Nation sold an unprecedented 30,000 reprints. Activists were abuzz over the so-called "crisis strategy" or "Cloward-Piven Strategy," as it came to be called. Many were eager to put it into effect.

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 key to sparking this rebellion would be to expose the inadequacy of the welfare state. Cloward-Piven's early promoters cited radical organizer Saul Alinsky as their inspiration. "Make the enemy live up to their (sic) own book of rules," Alinsky wrote in his 1971 book Rules for Radicals. When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judaeo-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.

The authors noted that the number of Americans subsisting on welfare -- about 8 million, at the time -- probably represented less than half the number who were technically eligible for full benefits. They proposed a "massive drive to recruit the poor onto the welfare rolls." Cloward and Piven calculated that persuading even a fraction of potential welfare recipients to demand their entitlements would bankrupt the system. The result, they predicted, would be "a profound financial and political crisis" that would unleash "powerful forces … for major economic reform at the national level."

Their article called for "cadres of aggressive organizers" to use "demonstrations to create a climate of militancy."

Sound familiar?

One of my favorite articles ever: Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis published on Sept 8, 2008 by Jim Simpson. As I've said before, I was in shock and sent it to everyone I knew. . And now, thanks to the LIVs, here we are. .

I have a different opinion if I understand it correctly.

This Ebola virus in the US is NOT going to help Barry Obola at all. In fact, it will shut the border and his agenda to overrun the US with ignorant voting blocks.

JMHO

“A black nurse told my wife yesterday that she believes this is all Agenda 21. It gives me hope that people are paying attention that I didn’t think were.”

Totally agree. Same here...heard some very non-political types tell me lately they would NOT miss voting this year for anything!

Keep the faith and keep the powder dry.

"Our President is clearly reckless, irresponsible, incompetent, unstable, or and, especially, evil."

Sorry, I just had to make that change.

I pray you're right, but I worry that this heroic resistance by true Americans will entail great cost in blood and treasure, all over again.

At least as we're paying in blood and treasure, we'll be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Unlike now.

Voting won’t help much. They’re all in on it. The Repubs haven’t lifted a finger to stop the agenda. They just want to be among the elite when it all shakes out.

No, it won't help at all. I increasingly see voting as condoning criminality.

The ruling junta will not reform itself. Rome-on-the-Potomac not only has no interest in the restoration of republican freedom, it is clear they stand against it.

Obola has gathered arbitrary powers into the presidency. No matter the party of the next president, he will have these despotic powers. IOW, the next president will be something of an elected American dictator.

There is only one possible way out of this mess, an Article V state convention to propose STRUCTURAL amendments to our constitution which deprive DC of its centralized powers.

I agree; with the FIRST part of your statement anyhow.


 

 

2 Chronicles 7:14

If my people, who are called by my name,
shall humble themselves,
and pray, and seek my face,
and turn from their wicked ways; ,

then will I hear from heaven,
and will forgive their sin,
and will heal their land.


We cannot fix Spiritual problems with Political solutions.

James Madison addressed the problem of not entirely virtuous men in positions of power in Federalist 51, fourth paragraph.

<>We cannot fix Spiritual problems with Political solutions.<>

My post addressed government, not politics.

Government is composed of the formal institutions which establish the framework of legal authority. Politics describes how men use those instruments of authority.
