Author of the recent book "The War at Home: The Domestic Costs of Bush's
Militarism," Piven said today: "The new budget proposals continue the
Republican strategy of emasculating the parts of government that serve
ordinary Americans in order to build the military, subsidize corporations,
and slash taxes on the affluent. With deficits rising and the dollar
weakening, the policy threatens not only the well-being of millions of
Americans, but the stability of the American economy." Piven is
Distinguished Professor of Political Science and Sociology at the Graduate
School and University Center of the City University of New York. Her past
books include "The Breaking of the American Social Compact."
