Anyone hearf of: Cloward and Piven ?

[zork]

I had not heard of them but did know that HAMAS creates chaos to then be seen as the good guy when they come in to help.

Is this being willfully implemented in the USA or is it happening at all?

The Affordable Care Act doesn't seem to be helping, only creating chaos. Willfully so?
Does anyone care to discuss this as they see it? I want to know what others think here.

I don't know that there's a big conspiracy to implement the Cloward-Piven Strategy. Obviously, the government pays out more in welfare than it did a few years ago, but that has to do with more people becoming eligible (because of the bad economy) than an actual expansion of welfare programs. Of course, the ACA will be a notable exception.

Nevertheless, the ironic thing is that the strategy's goal is a guaranteed minimum income, which has historically had some support on the Right. Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman were both supporters of it.

Not until you posted it here. Those don't sound like folks who were ver part of the mainstream.

Yes, I am familiar with the strategy. We have talked about it previously on Hornfans.The Link

As I said back then, I don't believe the strategy is being followed. I think our economic problems are the product of self-serving politicians and an uninformed and negligent electorate.
