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".
Cloward and Piven were both radical, anti-capitalist, democratic socialist professors at the Columbia University School of Social Work.
The strategy was outlined in a May 1966 article in the liberal magazine The Nation titled "The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty"
Richard Cloward has died. His partner and wife, Francis Fox Piven, serves as the honorary chairman of the Democratic Socialists of America.
In the piece, Cloward-Piven demonized the ruling class by claiming that the federal government uses welfare to undermine and foment rebellion in poor black communities. Sounding like the world's most famous community organizer, Barack Obama, who spent eight years tacitly whipping up domestic terrorists like Occupy Wall Street, Antifa, and Black Lives Matter, Cloward-Piven maintained that the underclass could advance only if "the rest of society is afraid of them."
At the time, Cloward's and Piven's hope was that "cadres of aggressive organizers" involved in "demonstrations to create a climate of militancy" would incite a breaking point that possessed the power to influence the federal government to "level the playing field" via every socialist utopian's desired goal of a "guaranteed annual income."
The flood of immigrants at our borders today is neither an accident nor a surprise.
It is an extension of the Cloward-Piven Strategy - the goal of which has been known for 50 years.
The strategy is to collapse the financial system. The tactic is chaos. If a crisis does not exist, create one. The more chaos the better. The solution is always couched in empathetic words like “fair,” “equal,” “humane” and “just.”
