The Associated Press
NEW YORK— Public outrage is
building an unusually sturdy base
for President Clinton's push to re
shape the federal bureaucracy: 95
percent of Americans think the
government wastes lots of money,
an Associated Press poll found.
Such consensus could help Clin
ton push through changes he will
outline Tuesday under the rubric
of "reinventing government."
Based on a study led by Vice
President A1 Gore, Clinton is ex
pected to propose numerous
changes in the way the federal
government buys services, hires
workers, makes budgets, pays
benefits, collects fees and divides
duties among agencies.
According to the poll, the av
erage American thinks 37 per
cent of the $1.5 trillion federal
budget could realistically be cut
as wasteful.
While it would be unimaginable
for a politician or budget expert to
suggest cutting even 30 percent,
fully half of those polled say that's
how much fat should be cut. One
in 10 wanted to do away with
more than half the federal budget.
Assuming the nation doesn't
shirk its debt service or defense
plans, the only way Congress
could cut more than 30 percent
would be to chip away at benefit
programs such as Social Security
and health care for the elderly.
The poll shows most Americans
don't consider such popular pro
grams wasteful.
The response was clear on
how much the federal govern
ment wastes: 72 percent said "a
great deal" and 23 percent said
"quite a lot." Two percent said
"not very much," and 3 percent
were not sure.
Opinion was more varied when
different categories of spending
were mentioned. Fifty-one percent
said military spending is wasteful,
for example, and dissenters were
largely Southerners, people who
live outside metropolitan areas and
those whose families earn less than
$15,000 a year.
Welfare seemed wasteful to 59
percent overall, but not to most
blacks and to those earning less
than $15,000.
Seven in 10 people polled say
foreign aid is wasteful.
Two-thirds of those polled said
Social Security spending is effi
cient, not wasteful. Men were more
likely to consider it wasteful than
women, upper-income people
more than lower-income, young
people more than old people. Re
publicans more than Democrats.
Those who thought the federal
budget could be hacked by half or
more were somewhat more likely
to consider Social Security waste
ful. Even so, six in 10 of these
heavy cutters did not call Social
Security wasteful.
In other categories, 44 percent
said the government was waste
ful in drug treatment, 44 percent
in environmental protection and
42 percent in price supports for
farmers.

EL PASO — Former garment worker Adriana Ro
driguez didn't need Ross Perot to tell her about the
"sucking sound" from the south that meant U.S. jobs
were being transferred to Mexico.
Perot, the failed independent presidential candi
date, used the phrase during last year's election
when describing what he believed would be the ef
fect of the North American Free Trade Agreement on
the U.S. job market.
As far as Rodriguez is concerned, she had already
heard the sound two years earlier when the garment
factory where she worked suddenly moved to Mexi
co, leaving her without a job and without prospects
of finding one.
"That's happening and it's going to keep happen
ing," said Rodriguez.
She echoed the fears of many garment workers,
who believe passage of the trade agreement would
accelerate the ongoing flight of jobs like theirs into
Mexico, where companies can firld cheaper labor.
To her and others, the agreement is a "disaster
waiting to happen." The treaty negotiated among
the United States, Mexico and Canada would create
the world's largest trading bloc by phasing out most
barriers to the free movement of goods, services and
investment among the countries.
And the workers don't hold out much hope that
they or Mexican laborers will actually get any help
from a side agreement negotiated to improve labor
conditions and promote enforcement of national la
bor laws in all three nations.
"There's no teeth to the whole package," said
Sandra Garza Spector, a business agent with the In
ternational Ladies Garment Workers Union.
The agreement announced Aug. 13 will create a
tri-national labor council to work cooperatively on
labor issues and provides for sanctions that can be
invoked if a country persistently fails to enforce la
bor laws.
The finer details of the labor agreement and an
other side accord on the environment haven't been
made available yet, but the debate over what they
will mean is already raging among NAFTA propo
nents and critics.
Gordon Cook, assistant director of the Institute
for Manufacturing and Materials Management at
the University of Texas-El Paso, said he hasn't seen
anything in the labor agreement of "particular sub
stance."
"If you look at the whole NAFTA agreement,
there's really nothing hard and fast in there," he
said, "and consequently the environmental and la
bor side deals of necessity have icvbe very-broad.V
The labor accord eliminated a "few loopholes
that potentially could have led to some abuses,
from the standpoint of just ensuring that you doq't
have sort of raiding of one country's jobs by the
other," said Economist Ray Perryman of Perryman
Consultants Inc.
