The fact that you invoke the Obama Phone myth is, in and of itself , enough to destroy and credibility that you might have had:
Hey, I didn't create the term--she did:
And, your antidotal story about something you allegedly observed once in no way mitigates or refutes the logic and facts presented by Piven and Cloward
Not once, hundreds of times. You see years ago when I used to repair and deliver medical equipment to homes, I often found myself in lower income areas. I've been in every Cleveland project at least a half-dozen times.
Always the same thing. Single welfare mom with three or four kids, at times pregnant with another one. There were a lot of Medicaid forms to sign, and some of them didn't even know how to write.
The solution to their problem (that they created) was quite simple. Keep your legs closed and get a job instead. But hey! As long as we taxpayers are going to give them a place to live, plenty to eat, free medical care, what's the point of doing things the hard way?
