The Cloward-Piven’ing of the EU is continuing; take notice

Alternatively: proving the Libertarian idea of open borders is a recipe for disaster. Emphasis mine:

The continued flow of MENA [Middle East North Africa  -Skip] migrants into Europe remains the defining factor transforming the internal political dynamic in the European Union. The more than 1.5 million people who entered the EU last year, as well as those who are continuing to arrive on Europe’s shores, are straining state resources. The security of the EU’s external borders, a key subject of the recent heads-of-state meeting in Vienna, is also a serious problem. But even more significant than these are the internal political changes the migrant flows are driving: the growing polarization of the public and the hardening of anti-immigrant feelings across Europe.

The latter effect, the change in attitudes, is much more important for the EU’s future than whether member states can negotiate a plan for redistributing new arrivals; immigrants’ continuing difficulty integrating into society is an increasingly urgent problem. The newcomers’ failure to adapt to their new environment is a function of their often-limited language skills, cultural differences, and continued low levels of employment. All of this is driving a general sense in a number of host nations that the open door policy pursued by Germany and a number of other states last year is stretching their countries past the breaking point.

I’ve said for a long time that the EU was a bait-and-switch melded with the “boiling frog” conundrum – starting as simply a trade agreement with a common money system, the people behind it were never about the first two but their eventual prize – a United States of Europe.  Sadly, the brainiacs of this delusion forgot one important thing – unlike America which was formed from a group of ideas, each nation-state in Europe has its own culture, its own language, its own history, its own governance….and culture.  Yet, the meglomaniacs decided that their opinion counted and were willing to deceive each nation’s populace into thinking one thing was the goal and hid the actual.

Sorta like in my town, albeit writ tiny, where a group of adults “only” wanted to have the school bless their already working “football” program so that the young kids, now some in high school, would be able to play other schools.  It would still be a “club” sport and get this – NO taxpayer monies would be needed!  Nor any in the future!  Donors were lined up, volunteers were working – what’s to be worried about?

They gave us their word.  I already knew what was going to happen.   It did.

These lying scum came back a coupla few years later saying that they wanted the School Board to adopt football as a formal part of their budget.  Oh, the series of woes came out – kids were losing interest, the donors dried up, and volunteers were getting sparse. Get this- their rally cry?  How could we DARE take this program away from these kids – they depend on it SO much!”

So much for being truthful.  We’re seeing the same in the EU – the lies are falling apart and the populace have not just grown weary but angry.  They are realizing what their Political Class will still not admit – there is value to their nations and certainly their culture and they don’t want to use it.  Of COURSE, their betters know that a US of E will be much better for them but people are seeing that they’ve been had.  Their Political Class, German Prime Minister Angela “We can take in millions!” Merkel chief amongst them,are now stupified – what, they are ANGRY?  They aren’t accepting these wholesale changes, including importing an entire new population into their nations that have NO shared values and seemingly no interest in assimilating into their new “home”.  I guess the powers that be just don’t understand Dar-al-Islam and that war can be fought by other means.  And they are losing on two fronts.

Past the breaking point” – that was the entire point of Cloward-Piven: to overload the system (and its people).  But I also believe, just like this post I did back in 2013, Europe is having their own C-P moment:

Look up Cloward-Piven – a scheme dreamed up by two Marxists academicians that want to totally want erase America as it now is.  Their premise was to overload “the system” and almost did it in New York City by overextending the welfare system in cahoots with other like minded groups getting people to get the City to pay out.  Their plan, once the City went under, was to replace it with a socialist / communist style of governance (and hoping that it would spread around the country). It didn’t work then, but then, they didn’t have control of the White House and like minded Socialist Progressives pushing hard in the US House and US Senate.

We’ve been pushed hard domestically (and it continues) and the EU people are getting crushed now.  Either the Political Class will get its desired changes or the people will turn that change on them.
