Clinton outlines plan to rebuild U S after 1992 Iowa visit
Former President candidate Bill Clinton told an Iowa audience he is a builder not a wrecker and urged moving beyond the Washington blame game. He vowed to manage the 1990 farm bill for supply management and grow rural opportunity while cutting red tape and restraining health care costs. Clinton proposed higher taxes on top earners, targeted cuts in nonessential spending, and a federal effort to reduce defense where possible. He pressed EPA ethanol waivers and pledged an education agenda including a lifetime learning program, adult literacy, two years of public service work, and a college loan trust fund.
