An objective review of the progressive left’s tactics over the last several decades reveals that their favorite technique is cyclical. Round and round it goes – unimpeded by any serious media exposure – increasingly corrosive of the rule of law, traditional values and the civil society.
It works likes this:
 
• deliberately create – or subsidize – a crisis
• throw piles of tax-payer money at the problem, which will only exacerbate things
• repeat – until a majority of the citizenry have become hapless government dependents
 
Ben Shapiro explains further, by way of examples, in Never Let a Self-Produced Horror Show Go to Waste ~

The American left has followed that pattern for generations. The left destroyed the nuclear family by incentivizing women to give birth out of wedlock. When out-of-wedlock births exploded, they used that as an excuse to elevate federal spending, elevate taxes and disestablish marriage between a man and a woman as a moral standard.
 
The left crafted a health care crisis by instituting price and wage controls that led to employer-sponsored insurance, and then undercut that insurance with excessive regulation and easy lawsuits. They used elevating costs as an excuse to push Obamacare and elevate taxes.

 
Unfortunately, for those or us who loved America before Obama started transforming destroying it, the current border crisis may go down as our progressive friends’ pièce de résistance; the mother of all crises ~
 
 

Obama created this situation, and he certainly knows how to exploit it. Obama wants to campaign based on the suffering of these children. He wants to push for higher taxes based on their unequal economic status. He wants their eventual votes for the left. He wants the federal government to punish American citizens tired of watching their government abandon them.
 
It’s all part of the agenda.

 
And because the mainstream media is solidly behind that leftist agenda, the relentless cycle of destruction will continue… until America is no more.
