Frances Fox Piven on Thomas Jefferson

Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8

That verse explains that there is a time and place for everything... even war... I suggest everyone read the link below, It explains how most people don't understand the Bible. (mainly because no one reads it)

[HammerOvThor]

She's so fucking naive. It's like watching a child.

[sssssjjjj1]

madison said, "when tyranny comes to our shores it will be in the guise of a fake foreign enemy." get it dummies? the fake war on terror.....who did 911? watch MOSSAD CAUGHT IN VAN ON 9-11 "FILLED WITH EXPLOSIVES" GW BRIDGE..... watch these two speeches if you want to understand it all....BENJAMIN FREEDMAN at the willard hotel..and MYRON FAGAN, cfr in america.... If you haven't listened to these speeches, you don't know what you think you do.

[rorschach1488]

She is just one of the many Jews in this country and around the world, spreading evil and destruction.

Is it any wonder why Jews have been kicked out and despised for thousands of years. What Hitler did was anything but new to these agents of Satan

[RonyMexico]

fuck this old corpse

[imaginativelads]

Right wingers need to ask the correct questions according to their constituent base:

1 Locks are strange, unlike mittens....which are not square. Are you an onion?

2 How old are bears?

3 If you like Pottery, does your hair whisper to you?

4 What time are grapes?

5 Do you have an overwhelming desire to hear Henry Kissinger sing"Enter Sandman" by Metallica?

It is only then,with honest answers to these basic right wing questions,we can BEGIN to comprehend this kind of mindset.

[jamo387]

This lady should be thankful that Sowell kicked her ass in a debate all those many years ago. Without that, I don't think anyone would even know who the hell this leftist retard is.

[linkwray22]

HEINOUS SWINE

CRUSH THE UNIONS!

RIGHT TO WORK!

RIGHT TO WORK!

RIGHT TO WORK!

RIGHT TO WORK!

[imaginativelads]

@linkwray22 We will crush you before you crush us. In fact, I think it's fair to say that we will no longer allow you to use our great nations flag for toilet. NO MORE! We're tired of you anti-American, pro-pedophile, right wing scum and we're determined to destroy you NO MATTER THE COST!

[linkwray22]

@imaginativelads Your shepherds and the enemies of America are proud of you.

Your hate divides my country.

[imaginativelads]

@linkwray22 I see that the generic right winger is still a dribbling preschooler intellectually, with all the verbal potency of a damp cracker.

[imaginativelads]

@linkwray22 "Your hate divides my country." and that would be the country who's flag you right wing traitors use for toilet paper. Not in MY COUNTRY you filthy TRAITOR! You don't love America? THEN LEAVE!

[haze2r1]

Again and again lets blame this or that. its very simple he who has the money BUYS HIS WAY OF LIFE. Corporations buy POLITICIANS to favor themselves then LIBERALS also purchase POLITICIANS to forward their cause. The FACT that the common denominator is as it always has been is the GREEDY self serviing POLITICIANS. If these men were of charcter and Patriotic Pride and actually worked for the people we would not be in this mess PEROD!!!!!!!!!!

[iainmac2]

Jefferson thought sharing the wealth, to take from one to give to another, was against the freedom of association. Better that private individuals engage in charity than the government engage in theft.

[psynema]

@iainmac2 slave owner...and he also was against overly large corporations, hoping Laissez faire would produce an abundance of competition, and not too big to fail entities.

[BLACKpajamaRIOT]

what an unwittingly contradictory idiot... she really is a moron. she doesn't get it at all...

[klg1956]

I think Adams and Jefferson would look at our country today and see two Americas. The entitlement "mob" state and the hard working independent who pays for the mob state. Lliving lavishly? Who is she to judge what I do with my money? Does she give her money away? Does she live beneath her wealth means in a tent? and donate the rest? Another rising? what does she mean? uprising? burning? violence? or just standing up from her chair?

[imaginativelads]

@klg1956 You don't have any money, you live a fucking trailer park with the rest of the TEA BAGGING TARDS and you know it. Now shut you snivelling republiFAAAG

[TheAerialbomb]

So do you think you gun loving unemployed Beck sheep can handle an eighty year old woman or would you have to go as a group? Beck has to go back to a book written 45 years ago? LOL

You right-wing nuts jobs are simpletons.

[RevWarRev]

Yeah, FFP looks like she's living in poverty and deprivation. Amazing how many of these progressive socialists give their calls for revolution and social change from the plush environs of tenured positions and upper class lifestyles!

[seiferganon]

@RevWarRev Just because i might not be living in poverty doesn't mean I may not recognize the suffering it inflicts on others. Your argument implies that someone who fights for the rights of the hungry must be starving themselves, which is absurd.

[TimeWarp66]

Marxist know-nothing.

[suze816]

I couldn't believe she had to start looking in her book to see her own opinion. Ghost writer, Frances ? Don't you know what your own opinion is without looking it up?

Thomas Jefferson would probably want to bitch slap you for grossly misrepresenting him.

Unequal amounts of people who have and don't have ? It's called Capitalism. If you don't like it....LEAVE.

[lukne]

AtlasObjectivist Show me the proof. Where did you find that she is a bonafide Communist.that

[KeyboardWarrior21]

She should work on making herself better and stop worrying about pushing her Marxist agenda on this country.

[KeyboardWarrior21]

must be lukes crazy aunt frances.Shes a left wing Marxist who has finally been exposed for what she is The Fox Pivin agenda has finally been brought to light where everyone can see it for what it is..An America hating crackpot.Let her try to spew this crap in the Soviet Union.Wait she's a communist so it might work for her.

Luke be a good boy and take auntie frances to the dog park

[lukne]

@KeyboardWarrior21 You're full of hyperbole. She is not a communist and she doesn't hate America. She is trying to make America better.

[AtlasObjectivist]

@lukne are you for real? She is an avowed communist, you are clearly out of your element in this discussion.

[mana2432]

@KeyboardWarrior21 the video where Sowell calls her out for her marxism and racism still gives me a chuckle

[lukne]

@myfernandoarce Pray for yourself.  How come anyone who disagrees with your right wing agenda is a communist? Are you so simple-minded and reactionary? Obviously you are.

[melardkey]

TJ would be stunned that totalitarian freaks like her have like minded friends in very high places.

[jmatthews4]

you know it's been revealed that this guy is a Beck supporter and has to pretend to be a student and lie to try and tarnish someone speaking her mind in a free country with free speech

[fishwagon]

that bitch is crazy, and terribly misguided.

[applecounty]

Wonderful man Jefferson. Fluent in French read Greek and Latin, studied Homer as well as being well read on the works of the Roman Senator and Historian [of the Roman Empire] Tacitus.

[KeyboardWarrior21]

who is this canadian crackpot to comment on a real american hero

[lukne]

@KeyboardWarrior21 She is a far smarter than you -- idiot.

[yakyakyak69]

This is one of the Marxist Domestic Enemies that We, the People are SWARN to defend against.

[AtlasObjectivist]

It's astonishing she has not been institutionalized.

[lukne]

@AtlasObjectivist Why? Because she is smart, thoughtful and has opinions?

[AtlasObjectivist]

@lukne no, because she is a radical loon much like the way you sound. She would not have gotten far under the great Pinochet.

[lukne]

@AtlasObjectivist The GREAT Pinochet? Please tell me you're joking. Otherwise you're sadistic and loony.

[AtlasObjectivist]

@lukne I'm loony, please.... you're the one sticking up for a radical communist set on destroying the United States.

The fact remains, because of Pinochet the communist Allende blew his own head off with a gun from Castro and the Chilean economy soared for the next decade. In effect raising untold millions out of poverty and saving them from a communist Piven hell.

You see this is the problem with leftist, they don't know the facts, they simply try to manipulate them.

[gasmasksandghanja]

@AtlasObjectivist Pinochet was a vile dictator who murdered thousand of people tortured even more. destroyed any progress that allendes reforms had done. making a few incredibly weatlhy namely american and british imperialism and did nothing to eliviate poverty and in fact illegally amassed a $28 million fortune for himself whilst in power and destroyed the economy in 1982 i think it is you who doesnt see the facts the problem with the right is they dont even bother looking at the facts.

[AtlasObjectivist]

@gasmasksandghanja Once elected Allendes went hard left and destroyed the economy. Pinochet could no longer stand by and watch his country be destroyed. He interceded on behalf of Chilean people and put forth the Chicago School free market reform. There is no disputing the "miracle of Chile" and the impact it had on raising the people out of poverty, it's reverberations are felt to this day. The flip side is your communist model as played out in countries like Cambodia, millions murdered.

[swckswck]

So what does posing as someone your not, and asking weak questions prove? Seems like Piven gave a pretty good answer to the question, hardly damning stuff.

[TheSteelGeneral]

yah. the interviewer posed as a collegestudent, while he's a Repub operative. He tricked Piven into giving an interview with the express purpose of distorting her views

[firstlaunch]

Nancy Pelosi's grandmother??

Huh Jefferson believed everyone should be independant and stand on their own merit. Thank God FDR and the rest of the Progressives who rose up to create those who are totally dependant on a Government monthly paycheck, healthcare, food and shelter. I think Jefferson would be perfectly happy with the current state!!!

[VNVet52]

@firstlaunch Correction, Jefferson would be leading the revolt against the Progressives

[firstlaunch]

@VNVet52 sorry I guess my sarcasm didn't come across plainly enough.....

[magali36]

This woman is a real lady and she speaks with calm and authority. She is a respected social scientist. I do not understand what the authors of these wacko comments can possibly think that Jefferson wrote at the end of the eighteenth century! Why don't they take a look at the CIA's World Factbook and learn something about income inequality and the Gini index? The comments are so aggressive because the authors are so ignorant, and they cannot stand to hear what's true.

[Stockpile1]

What a horrible Frankenstein prototype of a woman. Careful folks, I think she's going into mass production.

[3martijns]

She looks very ill. And her Mind is Twisted.

[barbarianopinion]

She is amazing. I've read just about every letter, article, book, that Jefferson wrote (even his natural history of Virginia). She has no idea what she's talking about. He would be stunned all right...stunned at the size and the scope of gov't and that people like her actually exist. Jefferson would have gone berserk in the 30's and would have led the next revolution.

[TheShannon76]

This woman is The Problem. And when you know The Problem, you can fix The Problem, but if you're sleepin', then The Problem is going to sneak on in, pick your wallet, because The Problem feels she's morally justified to do so, and she'll redistribute YOUR wealth. The Problem is all about collapsing OUR system so that we're ALL on welfare. That's The Problem. *Fist pump*

[lou1785]

Jefferson and Adams would have jailed her for treason.

[joepglass]

@lou1785 Adams would, not Jefferson.
