COVER STORY: Hurricanes Rain on Bush's Tax Cut Parade

My new cover story for In These Times magazine is out today - it is about how the Bush administration repeatedly put its tax cut agenda ahead of funding for basic flood/hurricane protection infrastructure. The piece follows an earlier op-ed I authored in the San Francisco Chronicle. It takes a very in-depth, systematic look at the administration's tax and budget decisions leading up to Hurricane Katrina, and shows how those decisions significantly contributed to the catastrophe that followed. See the full article here, and see the special timeline insert here.
