Strategy to Illegally Occupy Foreclosed Homes

does the Old had realize she would be out of a JOB if student loans dried up




Piven Uses Class Lecture to Lay Out Strategy to Illegally Occupy Foreclosed Homes, Default on Student Debt

• #### Prof. Frances Fox Piven gave a recent talk laying out new, radical plans for the Occupy movement
• According to her, the movement has to relocate, change tactics
• Public sociologists should help students “refuse to pay their debts” and avoid consequences when they default
• Academia should also assist in the reoccupation of foreclosed homes
• Occupy should exert “pressure” so that the illegal occupation of homes become legal ownership by occupiers
• Occupy should even figure out how to get the “utilities running” in illegally occupied buildings

The radical organizers of the Occupy movement are becoming notably desperate in their strategies for disruption. And as the movement continues to try to remain relevant, longtime Occupy cheerleader and radical CUNY professor Frances Fox Piven has offered her advice for some of Occupy’s most radical tactics. In a Skype interview with UC-Berkeley students recently, Piven seemed to offer a game plan by expanding on illegal, and possibly dangerous, actions the movement has toyed with before.

I've got a better idea, since Professor Piven advocates students defaulting on their student loans - why don't she and her liberal counterparts share the wealth and forego taking a salary and just teach their classes for free? Then the students have no debt to default on. Let college be TRUELY free!
