Poverty and bad levees could turn Hurricane Dolly into a "natural disaster" -- just like New Orleans

Hurricane Dolly is Category 2 and growing -- and about to hit the Texas-Mexico border, a poverty-stricken region of farm laborers and factory workers who are ill-equipped to face a devastating hurricane. The target area's biggest city -- Brownsville, TX -- has levees that haven't been fortified in 40 years.

If Dolly turns into a "disaster" it will be because of poverty and politics, not nature -- just like New Orleans.
