POPSVideo: Milton Friedman Obliterates Communist Frances Fox Piven This suggestion cannot be lightly dismissed. One of the architects of that 1960s-era strategy, Professor Frances Fox Piven, is an active supporter of the movement and told a public-radio interviewer: "I think we desperately need a popular uprising in the United States." Piven also denounced the financial industry at a Sept. 29 rally in New York where, in a bizarre call-and-response speech, she told the crowd: "You've heard people say they're greedy, and they are greedy. You've heard people say that they are thieves, and they are thieves. But they're also cannibals, because they are eating their own." "Occupy Wall Street" mobs know so much that isn't so .

It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government .. Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression? Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors.

POPS"The Constitution in 2020" The "Progressive" Marxist Manifesto by Year 2020
Steve Lerner is well known in union thug circles as the guy who uses intimidation to ensure success. March 19, 2011 Steve Lerner met with Abby Scher of Brooklyn College CUNY, Gerardo Dominguez of the Mexican Americans Workers Association, John Atols of ACORN and a number of other openly Marxist activists. Surrounded by fellow radicals , Mr. Lerner, unaware he was being recorded, felt comfortable enough to lay out his step by step plan to “put a boot in the wheel” of the American economy – crashing the stock market and orchestrating a complete banking collapse – in an effort to force Marxism upon the masses. Full audio with transcripts of Lerner’s plot can be found on You Tube, at The Blaze website ( http://bit.ly/fXlMke ) where this story broke, and all over the Internet. Lerner identifies this as a union-driven plan, presumably crafted by his cronies at the SEIU, and he calls for the aid of community organizers. But evidence suggests Lerner may already have the . .

Its stated goal is to achieve political and social change through orchestrated crisis. It is out and out economic warfare and is especially dangerous when combined with the Communist/Socialist agenda exposed by Iowa Rep. Curtis Bowers. It is an evil that strikes directly at the heart of natural law, liberty and America as envisioned by our founding fathers and must be passionately opposed wherever it is discovered.

Cloward and Piven also helped bring NWRO into the world. They acknowledge they “were intimately involved in the affairs of NWRO: we participated in discussions of strategy, in fund-raising efforts, and in demonstrations.” In the late 1960s Wade Rathke signed on as an organizer for NWRO’s chapter in Springfield, Mass. A few months after arriving in Springfield, Rathke had built up a local empire of activism. He constructed an influential welfare rights organization consisting of 20 neighborhood groups with a combined membership of more than 2,000. NWRO was also doing its best to swamp welfare departments nationwide. Between December 1960 and February 1969 the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) welfare program had grown 107 percent but in the 15-month period from February 1969 through October 1970 the program grew a staggering 55 percent as an extra 1.5 million families joined the rolls.

POPSThe Strategy for Gulag America Enfolds 2. The mortgage meltdown of 2008 was a coordinated attack upon America, in keeping with the Cloward-Piven Strategy of Manufactured Crisis, as James Simpson puts it. 3. There is a global, subversive movement to literally destroy our sovereign and free United States of America and the above elements have been components of it, along with the likes of George Soros, Maurice Strong, Ban Ki-moon, and numerous others in the most moneyed places of Russia, China, and/or Europe. Some of us call these Globalist Marxofascists, due to the destructive pseudo-solutions of control which tend to propose (see actual fascism, not what the progs tell you about it). Synonyms to this term include one that some of them use, transnational progressive. 4. The “spontaneous uprisings” of the Middle East are orchestrated by a core of global Marxofascists, who treat Islamists as their pawns. Trevor Loudon , Cliff Kincaid , and Aaron Klein have revealed much about this.

King is one of the few members of the U.S. Congress willing to identify the Democrat Party as the nest of destructive socialists that it really is. The train wreck they have created is the most urgent crisis we face. We literally have to take our country back or we will be too weakened to fend off a host of increasingly aggressive foreign foes. They live a parasitic lifestyle financed by We the People, cycling between political posts, lobbying and non-profits, and most haven’t darkened the doors of a church in ages, if ever. Most are elitists and disdain the working class, while simultaneously leeching off our efforts. They have been pushing for decades to put a greater number of voters on the Liberal Plantation than there are among the working public. With the details just beginning to surface from Obamacare and all the other onerous legislation passed by this corrupt Congress over the past two years, the top 50 percent may well be paying all income taxes.

POPS Politically Incorrect or Die
the Assistant Secretary of the Emergency in Aide of Displaced German Scholars, the Frankfurt School was relocated to New York City. Subsequently, the members were able to obtain prestigious positions in Universities such as Columbia, Princeton, Brandeis and Berkley of California. The Frankfurt scholars theorized that in order to accomplish their agenda, the Judeo-Christian legacy would need to be put to rest. Essentially, they believed that as long as an organized Judeo-Christian religion persisted, the masses could never be brought to the level of despair which would provoke a social revolution. Therefore, they felt that it was essential that they empty and destroy the Church. In addition to destroying the Church, it was felt that they would need to encourage government dependency, vastly increase immigration to confuse identity, undermine parental authority, create racial offences, promote disrespect for authority and attempt to breakdown the contemporary family.

POPSObama at Occidental ‘was looking forward to revolution'; Working Class Overthrow the Ruling Class: Exclusive
supplies a Marxist framework and a long-term strategy for community organizing. Here Dreier draws on French Marxist theo rist Andre Gorz’s notion of “transitional reforms,” or “non-reformist reforms,” to suggest a way of transforming American capitalism into socialism. The central idea, borrowed from Gorz, is to create government programs that only seem to be “reforms” of the capitalist system. Rightly understood, these supposed reforms are so incompatible with capitalism that they gradually precipitate the system’s collapse. Dreier’s strategy has two parts. On the one hand, quasi-socialist in situations need to be pre-established in the heart of capitalist society, so as to turn a coming moment of crisis in a socialist direction. These quasi-socialist institutions, of course, would be groups like ACORN, with a significant semi-governmental role via their insertion into the banking system, public utility commissions, business boards of directors, and so forth.

I regard those Columbia University luminaries, Richard Cloward and Frances Fox-Piven, as Typhoid Elitists. From tony ivory towers, they concocted their theories about overwhelming and crashing the system. While the duo kept out of the fray, they aggravated and agitated urban black youths to riot. Their manipulation of ghetto kids so outraged a then-young black reporter, Juan Williams, that he wrote an angry treatise for the Washington Post, "If Liberals Need Riots, Let Whites Do It." But that didn't stop Cloward and Piven from continuing to exploit blacks as foot soldiers in their quest for revolution. Regarding the enigmatic Obama, there are many theories percolating to understand his modus operandi. Maybe he's a warrior righting the colonialist wrongs of his father. Or perhaps he's a fiery radical, à la Bill Ayers, raging against the system. Some people

POPSObama’s Cloward-Piven Economic Strategy Working Out As Planned
The Cloward-Piven Strategy, Part I: Manufactured Crisis Liberals self-righteously wrap themselves in the mantle of public spirit. They ardently promote policies promising to deliver the poor and oppressed from their latest misery — policies which can only find solution in the halls of government. But no matter what issue one examines, over the last fifty plus years, the liberal prescription has almost always been a failure. Why is this so? Why does virtually every liberal scheme result in ever-increasing public spending while conditions seem to get continually worse? There are a number of reasons: 1. The programs usually create adverse incentives. This is especially true in so-called “anti-poverty” programs. The beneficiaries find government subsidies a replacement for, rather than a supplement to, gainful employment and eventually become incapable of supporting themselves. This in turn creates a dependent culture with its attendant toxic behaviors which demand still...

.... because bad people were in charge of them..... the President gave this as his reason for pushing so forcefully for his health-care takeover plan: "....... The reason I tackled healthcare wasn’t because this was my personal hobbyhorse. The reason I tackled it was during the course of the campaign, I traveled all across this country and I kept on hearing heart-breaking stories about families who were bankrupt because they got sick..... It doesn’t matter if this is his sincere belief, spoken straight from the heart. His health-care plan was still an awful idea that united the country in opposition against the increasingly thuggish and arrogant methods he used to advance it. Those methods are integral to the collectivist enterprise. It will always become thuggish and arrogant, because when all virtue resides in the State, those who oppose the growth of the State become villains by definition. Consider the President’s assessment of his Republican opponents:
