Planned Chaos - The Cloward Piven Strategy

Cloward-Piven Strategy. It was first elucidated in the 1960s by a pair of radical leftist Columbia University professors, Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven. Former radical-turned-conservative, David Horowitz, describes it thusly: The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis…. …the "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.

An obvious example is the over-dramatized, fact-lacking man-made global climate change "crisis". I also find it ironic (& suspect) that the so-called "swine" flu (H1N1) scare came about the same time as the recent health care agenda.
