Walt Rubel Commentary: Expectations for session too high

3/30/2023

 
I had hoped that legislators would take advantage of the unprecedented $9.4 billion budget this year to begin the transition away from an economy that is dependent on oil and gas revenue, but I don’t think that was ever on the agenda.

The governor had promised before the election that we would all get checks in the mail if she won, so that was a given. Legislators also passed new tax credits for the film industry, and a phased-in reduction of the gross receipts tax.

Walt Rubel Commentary: Is GOP now the party of peace and love?

3/22/2023

 
I’m not at all comfortable with my new position to the right of Republican leaders on foreign policy.

As a child who grew up watching the Vietnam War on the nightly news and fearing it would still be raging when I turned 18, I have always opposed the military adventurism of Republican leaders, whether it was Richard Nixon in Vietnam and Cambodia; Ronald Reagan in Central America or George W. Bush in Iraq.

Think Again: Dr. James C. Rice, NMSU

3/20/2023

 
Dr. James C. Rice has just published a book entitled:

Downwind of the Atomic State - Atmospheric Testing and the Rise of the Risk Society

Today we explore how the scientific community and U.S. government agencies overlooked, ignored, and denied the catastrophic fallout of decades of nuclear testing in the American West. In this peer-reviewed book Dr. Rice reveals his broad and in-depth findings on the history of these programs and their adverse impacts on life for those "downwind". The book and the conversation touch on thought-provoking evaluations of both the science and the sociological processes in play for the agencies, the people, and the communities affected, past and present.
