The above is a video representing the mind on socialism. “Free buses means that less drivers will get assaulted so the buses will become safer,” the newly elected New York City mayor concluded.
This is the same logic that believes defunding the police will equate to fewer arrests. It’s the same logic San Francisco used when telling citizens to leave their car doors unlocked to prevent thieves from smashing their windows. Toronto police suggested that citizens leave their car doors open to prevent home invasions. Socialists reframe crime as social injustice that couldbe eliminated through economic equality.
Inequality and capitalism are responsible for the crime rather than the criminal himself.
During the French Revolution of 1789 involved releasing prisoners in an event known as the Storming of the Bastille. Lenin famously emptied the prisons during the 1917 Russian Revolution. Destabilizing society gives the government a reason to expand. The criminal becomes the victim and crime explodes because there are no repercussions. Those who produce are punished through taxation as they believe YOUR wealth must be redistributed.
Economic injustice victims are needed for the Cloward-Piven strategy— overburden the bureaucracy to break the system, create controlled chaos, usurp power as civil unrest peaks, and offer government aid as the only solution.
“Once eligibility for basic food and rent grants is established, the drain on local resources persists indefinitely.” Cloward and Piven wanted to overburden the welfare system at the state level to eliminate state rights. Therefore, under this theory, government is encouraged to market a crisis, antagonize the people, and offer a solution. The only solution being to replace capitalism with socialism or communism by which the people would be entirely dependent on government. You will own nothing and be happy.
