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 .

POPStheCL Report (September 04, 2011) The question is not what anybody deserves. The question is who is to take on the God-like role of deciding what everybody else deserves. You can talk about 'social justice' all you want. But what death taxes boil down to is letting politicians take money from widows and orphans to pay for goodies that they will hand out to others, in order to buy votes to get re-elected. That is not social justice or any other kind of justice. -- Thomas Sowell

POPSHow the Stimulus Racket Works It's an endless cycle. A "crisis" must be solved. There's always a crisis. Politicians sound the alarms and provide a "plan" chock full of grand promises. The media tells stories of pending doom, while parading "experts" before us assuring the politicians are doing the "right thing" (but of course!). After all, they tell us, only government intervention will save us now. When their policies fail (as they always do), far from being discredited, these "Teflon prophets" (as Thomas Sowell calls them) continue to be revered, grow in status and stature, and their fantasy-land advice is relied on (to the detriment of us all) once again, while those who got it right are dismissed as "simplistic." Whether it's spending, prohibition, environment, war, you name it ... this same pattern repeats itself, over and over again.
