Cloward-Piven, Again

It's the same tactics, in a new war. For those who, unlike myself, did not attend a liberal college, this may be new to you.   Here's a link explaining the technique. Here's a link explaining the strategy with their OWN WORDS.   Social service activists have taken over the field of social work, USING the poor/desperate deliberately to move their revolutionary goals.  The social worker who is in the job because she/he want to help people is pushed to cooperate with anti-American movements, that want to bring down the system, no matter who it hurts.
