The extensive and detailed plan was the direct product of these two Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven known as the “Cloward-Piven Strategy”.  Cloward-Piven strategy explains how you could hasten the fall of [[capitalism]] by overloading the entitlement system which would push society into economic crisis and collapse. That would unleash chaos and violence in the streets, opening a door to radical Leftist political change.

The Cloward-Piven Strategy is a misguided plan, popular with leftist ideologues, accepted and advocated by many politicians like the Clintons and Obama, designed by Frances Fox Piven[1] with her husband Richard Cloward[2].
Their plan is meant to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the entitlement system, pushing society into an economic crisis and collapse, paving the road to socialism which will lead to communism according to Karl Marx. That of course will weaken the masses produce another "blood bath" which will wipe out millions of people as it did during the twentieth century.
Trying to collapse the economy so that you can alter the form of government by force from a republic is of course treason.
The open border strategy of the left is part of that same plan to destroy America.
Economic bankruptcy is product of moral bankruptcy.
The decline and fall of Rome was the result of the free bread and circuses and their "appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence;[3] ... until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch."
This welfare states was the covetous practices mentioned by Peter that would make the people human resources and curse children.
The Way of Christ was the remedy of Jesus and the "daily ministration" of "pure Religion" of the Early Church through fervent Charity was His Salvation in Spirit and Truth.

Cloward-Piven Strategy

The Cloward-Piven Plan is a 1966 strategy rooted in the ideology of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. Of course the Coronavirus pandemic and subsequent compelled Shutdown were perfect executions of manufactured crises.


The extensive and detailed plan was the direct product of these two Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven known as the “Cloward-Piven Strategy”. Cloward-Piven strategy explains how you could hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the entitlement system which would push society into economic crisis and collapse. That would unleash chaos and violence in the streets, opening a door to radical Leftist political change.

Unfortunately, some have listed their 8-point plan as belonging to Saul Alinsky because of their association and admiration of his work. Even Snopes points out that such a claim is "False" but never makes mention of either Cloward or Piven and that their eight-point Plan is real and in play. See "Beware the Useful Idiots"[4]


The Road Not Taken

Michael Reisch and Janice Andrews wrote in the book The Road Not Taken[5] that Cloward and Piven "proposed to create a crisis in the current welfare system – by exploiting the gap between welfare law and practice – that would ultimately bring about its collapse and replace it with a system of guaranteed annual income.

They hoped to accomplish this end by informing the poor of their rights to welfare assistance, encouraging them to apply for benefits and, in effect, overloading an already overburdened bureaucracy."

Cloward and Piven as confirmed progressive socialists were inspired by the philosophy of communism, the organizing skills of Saul Alinsky, and the Watts Riots of August 1965.

They believed that chaos would need to be achieved before they could introduce their Progressive political ideology which was the ideology of Democratic Socialism masquerading as the salvation of the people.

neither offer a solution but merely a different speed in your decline.

This was not a new strategy to gain power over the people but is as old as Cain and Nimrod.

Even Augustus Caesar had made similar promises of a utopia through Democratic Socialism and its programs of legal charity which contributed to the decline and fall of Rome.

History does repeat itself if we are willing to see it with a humble heart.

We are in the end stage of the Cowardly and Piven strategy designed in hell to destroy America and mankind.

Neither Democrats nor the Republicans offer a real solution. But there is a solution. If we are willing to see our part in the problem and turn our own practices and thinking around and go the better way there is some hope.


We must seek what was called The Way of righteousness. To do that we must be willing to see that before government became the problem we became the problem.

Frances Fox Piven bragging about Obama's covert support in creating an economic crisis. Time .43 sec.

Degenerating society

"The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty" by Frances Fox Piven, Richard A. Cloward, published Monday, May 2, 1966 in The Nation was the strategy to force change through "disruptions" which "would generate severe political strains, and deepen existing divisions among elements in the big-city Democratic coalition..." Their work to make the "Negro constituencies" more dependent upon and addicted to the welfare state was "designed to insure the support of Northern Negroes and liberal elements in the Democratic coalition." Their plan "laid the ground for a new Southern Democratic coalition of moderate whites and the hitherto untapped reservoir of Southern Negro voters." Their hope was to create "Group conflict, spelling political crisis for the local party apparatus, would thus become acute as welfare rolls mounted and the strains on local budgets became more severe."
They had no moral qualms nor historical insight into the long-term effects of their plan to buy the loyalty of the "masses" who would become accustomed to living at the expense of others stating clearly:

"If organizers can deliver millions of dollars in cash benefits to the ghetto masses, it seems reasonable to expect that the masses will deliver their loyalties to their benefactors. At least, they have always done so in the past."

Wrong Way Taken

It has been the covetous practices of mankind seen in the acceptance of the benefits of Legal charity through the authority of the welfare State that has degenerated societies and empowered tyrants from Cain's first city state to Babylon's "mighty provider" Nimrod. This was also seen in the Sin of Sodom, the rigorous bondage of Egypt, the free bread and circuses of Rome and now in the Great Society of FDR, the War on Poverty of LBJ and, of course, the Cloward-Piven Strategy°.

No political party can alter the course of the Law of Nature and the ultimate decline of the government's of the world unless the people of the nations Repent and begin to seek the kingdom of God and His Righteousness.

"The masses continue with an appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence; [6] and now uniting their forces massacre, banish, and plunder,[7] until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch." [8] [9]

Polybius saw the downfall of the republic by way of their free bread and welfare a 150 years before the first Emperor of Rome and 175 years before the birth of John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ who opposed these same systems of free bread at your neighbor's expense.
The authoritarian State often uses force and violence to become the Benefactors of the people if the covet what is their neighbors'. They make a social contract where one class of citizen is forced to provide for another class through "legal charity" which is not true charity. The writings of the Apostles warned along with countless passages of ancient writings of the prophets including Proverbs 23 which warned them about what Christ forbid which was the covetous practices of socialist forms of government.

Crisis Strategy

Cloward and Piven both admittedly understood that welfare, like the free bread of Rome, weakened the poor by providing an all to convenient social safety net which worked as an opiate of the people. [10]

Cloward told The New York Times on September 27, 1970. Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system. It would call for "cadres of aggressive organizers" to use "demonstrations to create a climate of militancy" in a "massive drive to recruit the poor onto the welfare rolls" swamping the bureaucracy with new applicants and bankrupting governments.

George Alvin Wiley and others[11] used this “crisis strategy” through The National Welfare Rights Organization (NWRO) which certainly added to the bankruptcy of New York City in 1975.

Sol Stern on the Manhattan Institute's City Journal wrote. "The flooding succeeded beyond Wiley's wildest dreams. From 1965 to 1974, the number of single-parent households on welfare soared from 4.3 million to 10.8 million, despite mostly flush economic times. By the early 1970s, one person was on the welfare rolls in New York City for every two working in the city's private economy."[12]

The Bate

With the 1996 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act President Clinton established "a federal program of income redistribution," which culminated in "the end of welfare as we know it" where both Cloward and Piven attended the White House signing.


Since capitalism cannot produce enough poor to drain the system the plan is to import poor socialist from other country by creating porous borders, financing large caravans, offering free education, medical care, ID on demand to bring as many needy people to the country as they can find. This way they can bankrupt the nation on a fast track to economic failure and chaos.

Paul the Apostle warns about tables being a "snare and a trap", and a "stumblingblock" quoting David.[13]

Those tables are said to be filled with things sacrificed to "devils"?[14]

Are those the entitlements of the unrighteous mammon which are also the wages of unrighteousness?

Canary of Society

For thousands of years it has been well known in history that the spreading of dainties of rulers weakens the people.

"That the man who first ruined the Roman people twas he who first gave them treats and gratuities" Plutarch's Life of Coriolanus (c. 100 AD.)

Walter Williams has shown by facts, history, and data that it is the welfare state that has done to black Americans what slavery and Jim Crow laws could never do: destroy the black family.

The excessively high murder and violent crime rate found in the black community has appeared as the result of the destruction of the black family unite trough father absence and the increase use of and addiction to drugs which followed the introduction of the welfare state, first with FDR's New Deal in the 1930s and then with LBJ's war in poverty in the 1960s. The high crime statistics in the black community which has produced the high arrest and incarceration rate not any imagined systemic racism or police abuse.

The irresponsible and ill-advised targeting of the black community by people like Cloward and Piven has contributed to the bankruptcy of the soul of society. The toxic poison of the covetous practices of the welfare state suffocates the very blood of society as Polybius prophesied for the Imperial Cult of Rome.

The changes in the heart of society are subtle but unmistakable with a dependence upon legal charity. They are infecting all of society as families continue to break down degenerating all of society and the nation itself.

“Above this race of men stands an immense and tutelary power, which takes upon itself alone to secure their gratifications and to watch over their fate. That power is absolute, minute, regular, provident, and mild. It would be like the authority of a parent if, like that authority, its object was to prepare men for manhood; but it seeks, on the contrary, to keep them in perpetual childhood: it is well content that the people should rejoice, provided they think of nothing but rejoicing. For their happiness such a government willingly labors, but it chooses to be the sole agent and the only arbiter of that happiness; it provides for their security, foresees and supplies their necessities, facilitates their pleasures, manages their principal concerns, directs their industry, regulates the descent of property, and subdivides their inheritances: what remains, but to spare them all the care of thinking and all the trouble of living?
"Thus it every day renders the exercise of the free agency of man less useful and less frequent; it circumscribes the will within a narrower range and gradually robs a man of all the uses of himself. The principle of equality has prepared men for these things; it has predisposed men to endure them and often to look on them as benefits.
"After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd." [15]

The Blood

Even a "CBS/New York Times survey" found that only 16% of millennials and 30% of Americans over 30 could give an accurate definition of socialism. Only groups on the right could accurately define “socialism”. A survey concerning the word “capitalism” produced similar results. Even leaders of the democratic party fail to define these words.

So, the popularity of socialism on the left seems to be born out of ignorance. But thanks to the media it has been energized by hate, first by a clear bias hatred of Trump that has expanded to hatred for police and the very government that provides those benefits so desired by the same voters on the left. I guess that is what makes them “useful idiots”.

“The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his soul.” Proverbs 29:10

The seat of the soul of society is found in the blood of society which is freely given or taken by force.

"For the life of the flesh [is] in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it [is] the blood [that] maketh an atonement for the soul." Leviticus 17:11 [16]


8-point plan for Socialism

The Cloward-Piven 8-point plan to implement Socialism

1) Healthcare– Control healthcare and you control the people

2) Poverty – Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.

3) Debt – Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.

4) Gun Control– Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state.

5) Welfare – Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income)

6) Education – Take control of what people read and listen to – take control of what children learn in school.

7) Religion – Remove the belief in the God from the Government and schools

8) Class Warfare – Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.


Phases of destruction

Long before Cloward or Piven were born the process of moving the US to a socialist political economy was well on its way. Even Yuri Bezmenov a journalist and KGB defector warned America of the real dangers of Ideological subversion that was already going on in public education, the media, and politics for nearly a century. Yuri believed America was the last hope.

The Cloward-Piven plan has been laid out and well published for decades but now the process is in rapid motion and every phase of their plan was in full operation while they dined in the White House. History and human nature will fill in the blanks the fool and their worldly folly could not foresee in the blindness of their murderous ambition and that which they could not see will pour out bitter poison into their dreams.[17] Those dreams shall become nightmares that will overtake the children of deception with destruction.[18]

The degeneration of morals, the perversion history, and the toppling of symbols and Statues is evidence that Ideological subversion wrought by the rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual wickedness in high places has been working.[19]

More than a decade ago Yuri Bezmenov was explaining the detailed plan of brainwashing of the youth and academics of nations.[20] With subtlety the foolish[21] have spread philosophies of death, the social practices destruction that made the people the workers of iniquity.[22] The people were envious of the benefits of the world of the foolish and desirous of the wages of unrighteousness.[23]

The abyss of vanity

The equality of Socialism is the prosperity of the wicked.[23] The words of Cloward, Piven, Marx and Lenin preached on the left is the gospel of envy and vanity.[24]

The people who are offended by free speech and who seek to silence the opinions of others will desire to exist in highly polarized and insulated ideological community wokely occupying their own information bubble deceiving themselves.[25]

If you fear the revelation of facts the truth becomes your enemy and lies will lurk about you but if you are willing to seek the whole truth and provide for it then facts are your friend and freedom will be your companion.

Their hate and covetousness feed each other blinding the whole nation[20] which ushers in the demoralization of the people until the habitual denial of truth. Any and all facts that bring the lies they cling to into the light become their enemy and all liars become their ally.[26]

Those who embrace a lie make an enemy of the truth. Like the heretics of the past they will seek to cut out their tongue of all those who share or even see the truth.

Pernicious ways

Their self-righteous vanity continues to bar any hope of redemption. If people of the world continue to cling to their pernicious ways and shun the way of Christ. The false prophets and their gospel of destruction[27] spread through the apostasy of the Modern Church[28] have deceived many[29] hearts and minds[30] to accept their pernicious ways. What are those pernicious ways? Peter told you it was covetousness.[31]

These pernicious ways take root among the people not just because of those false prophets and false teachers but because the people had an appetite for benefits and were willing in their hypocrisy[32] to obtain them by the rule of force which seared their conscience until they were accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others.

The history of destruction has been the story of the blind leading the blind.

Having all ten planks of the Communist Manifesto accepted as law in America for years now could have only been accomplished by implementing the idea that it was okay to seek benefits or gain through force and the taxation of your neighbor. This of course is the antitheses of what was at one time the essence of the teachings of Abraham who would not take a buckle, Moses who only wanted to free the people, or Jesus who came not only to serve but to set the captive free.[33]

The puppet masters of the world have secured outcomes and certainly manipulated elections through multiple means and double standards, censorship, and the usual Media Madness and mayhem. None of that would have been possible except the people were already willing to deceive themselves about so many things because of their own pride, sloth, and avarice.

How anyone claiming to be a Christian or Jew could imagine such covetous practices of providing benefits through force to be acceptable to God is evidence of a strong delusion.

Accepting the idea that public education among the Mire of other gifts, gratuities and benefits provided by rulers at the expense of your neighbor was a moral thing to do has already sealed the fate of America. America could only be great if Americans were truly good.

Of course it is not moral for Christians because Christ forbid it but the brutish pastors[34] of the modern Church do not preach the Gospel of the kingdom nor the way of the early Church.[35]

Phases

What phase are we in? Maybe all of them, certainly the phase called sin. You could say that Phase 1 and 2 were to manufacture a crisis to instill fear and cripple the economy. That could not have been done among people of true faith for they fear not. But that is where we run head long into the wall of pride and self-righteousness where facts don't matter.

The Coronavirus pandemic and subsequent compelled Shutdown were classic examples of a manufactured crises. They were able to control the people's thinking, if you can call it thinking, because people had not been seeking the whole truth nor providing for it themselves for a long, long time. The rulers of the darkness of this world filled with spiritual wickedness hate free speech because they love darkness. They were able to manufacture fear that no facts could alter nor could reason penetrate that wall of pride built through years of sanctimonious justification of sin.

Phase 3 would of course be the control and changes which are being done by promising people everything while delivering them more into bondage. But the real culprits of destruction, like the decline and fall of the Roman empire was the foolishness of the masses.

Phase 4 will undoubtedly run prices up and drain the population of the rest of their wealth and buying power with inflation which will inflate the fear factor. Phase 5 continue to undermine the system as they have done for years while food shortages overcome a degenerate and divided population. Power outages like we have seen for years now in Australia having destroyed their grid with "green energy". Then gas and fuel shortages while raising prices.

Phase 6 put down feeble attempts at rebellion with foreign troops if needed. Meanwhile keep sterilizing the youth with a biological agent disguised as vaccines. This will be followed by a real plague brought on with pathogenic priming and to collapse the population to the desired 500 million.

Americans and the world have already lost.

The new world order is already here. Because the people have long engaged in covetous practices forbidden by Christ, warned against by the Apostles and by Historians many have already degenerated into perfect savages and the lukewarm have no means of resistance except their vain imagination.[36]

The people have neglected,[37] if not abandoned,[38] the way of righteousness. Leaving them neither the strength nor the wisdom to battle the evil that is coming nor even dissipate the evil that is already here. They have lost the minds of generations which will not come back quickly and certainly not without suffering.

But there is a door If we will allow our thinking to be changed altering our actions, abandoning sloth.[39]

Don't be a foolish virgin.[40]

Our only defense or hope is to Repent and seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness starting with what Christ commanded and turn away from the wages of unrighteousness.

  9. ↑ An alternate translation in context, "9. For no sooner had the knowledge of the jealousy and hatred existing in the citizens against them which is replaced by democracy, emboldened some one to oppose the government by word or deed, than he was sure to find the whole people ready and prepared to take his side. Having then got rid of these rulers by assassination or exile, they do not venture to set up a king again, being still in terror of the injustice to which this led before; nor dare they intrust the common interests again to more than one, considering the recent example of their misconduct: and therefore, as the only sound hope left them is that which depends upon themselves, they are driven to take refuge in that; and so changed the constitution from an oligarchy to a democracy, and took upon themselves the superintendence and charge of the state. And as long as any survive who have had experience of oligarchical supremacy and domination, they regard their present constitution as a blessing, and hold equality and freedom as of the utmost value. But as soon as a new generation has arisen, and the democracy has descended to their children’s children, long association weakens their value for equality and freedom, and some seek to become more powerful than the ordinary citizens; and the most liable to this temptation are the rich. (which degenerates into rule of corruption and violence, only to be stopped by a return to despotism.) So when they begin to be fond of office, and find themselves unable to obtain it by their own unassisted efforts and their own merits, they ruin their estates, while enticing and corrupting the common people in every possible way. By which means when, in their senseless mania for reputation, they have made the populace ready and greedy to receive bribes, the virtue of democracy is destroyed, and it is transformed into a government of violence and the strong hand. For the mob, habituated to feed at the expense of others, and to have its hopes of a livelihood in the property of its neighbours, as soon as it has got a leader sufficiently ambitious and daring, being excluded by poverty from the sweets of civil honours, produces a reign of mere violence. Then come tumultuous assemblies, massacres, banishments, redivisions of land; until, after losing all trace of civilisation, it has once more found a master and a despot."
