Short-Sighted Disaster Response

During the panel discussion portion near the end of this "Houston and Katrina" podcast (February 25, 2008 at Rice University), a case management panelist points out that past government's "model for displaced people" is based on only a three-year program, and the program set up for Katrina's displaced was "only ever thought to be a two-year program."

The Bush Administration has committed us to helping Baghdad for a longer time than he planned to help New Orleans (or Houston).
