Ms. Piven is a REAL living person, 78 years of age, who still teaches at City University of New York Graduate Center and still writes for The Nation.  This article outlines what Ms Piven, Richard Cloward, and Lloyd Ohlin wrote and accomplished based on their beliefs and little else.  Most of the writings and actions taken by all three of these folks are not based on statistics or even real people.  Apparently, Ms Piven is receiving death threats now from "real people" after spending years and years closeted safely away at the university away from the damage she and her husband did with their social engineering attempts and theories.  Quite a nice commentary piece about some of what these folks did without so much as a study or anything else that might support their theories.  A good read.  Written by William Tucker on 1/26/2011.
