[0:00] With you again, on the next one.

[0:03] >> In Florida, a baby born without a brain

[0:06] and a debate over life and death.

[0:09] The economy moves up and so do interest

[0:11] rates.

[0:13] And if you like to see the air you

[0:15] breathe, Mexico City is your kind of

[0:17] town.

[0:20] This is NBC Nightly News with Tom

[0:22] Brokaw. [music]

[0:23] Tonight, sitting in for Tom is Garrick

[0:26] Utley.

[0:27] Good evening. We begin tonight with this

[0:29] hope voice today, quote, "Someday they

[0:32] would like to say their daughter has

[0:33] left a mark in this world and allowed

[0:36] another child to live." Words of the

[0:38] lawyer representing the parents of a

[0:39] baby born without a brain kept alive by

[0:41] court order. Legal rulings and ethical

[0:44] questions here in Florida, NBC's Noelle

[0:47] Eason.

[0:49] Teresa Ann Pearson has survived for 6

[0:51] days. She was born with an open skull

[0:54] and only a brain stem. Her brain stem

[0:56] keeps her heart and lungs working, but

[0:58] doctors say those organ functions could

[1:00] stop at any moment. Justin Pearson and

[1:02] Laura Campo, the baby's parents, asked a

[1:04] judge in Fort Lauderdale to have her

[1:06] declared legally dead so her organs

[1:08] could be donated to other sick babies.

[1:10] >> Everybody has a chance to live. My My

[1:13] child doesn't cuz she has no brain.

[1:16] But there's other children out there

[1:18] with a brain.

[1:20] But maybe it's a perfect heart or liver

[1:22] or something.

[1:24] They could use and carry on a normal

[1:26] life.

[1:27] >> Judge Estella Moriarty ruled that the

[1:29] baby's vital organs could not be removed

[1:31] because according to Florida law, the

[1:32] child is not legally brain dead. This

[1:35] morning, the attorney for the parents

[1:36] went back to court seeking an appeal to

[1:38] have the child declared legally dead,

[1:40] but the appeal was refused. The court

[1:43] has ruled that doctors can remove

[1:45] transplantable organs such as kidneys as

[1:47] long as the procedure itself does not

[1:49] end the baby's life. One of the baby's

[1:51] doctors says there's a reluctance to

[1:52] remove even non-vital organs for fear of

[1:55] violating the court's ruling.

[1:56] >> Uh we are hoping that uh this uh uh law

[2:00] is going to actually change uh at some

[2:02] point in in the uh near future.

[2:04] Uh that way a lot of babies uh might be

[2:07] might be able to be uh helped and saved.

[2:10] >> They don't have any good uh

[2:12] tissue match at all.

[2:13] >> The University of Miami's Organ Donor

[2:15] Center has scanned the country, but so

[2:17] far recipient young enough to accept any

[2:19] of the organs has not been found.

[2:21] Doctors say Baby Theresa does not feel

[2:23] any pain, and they are surprised she has

[2:25] survived this long.

[2:27] No one Nelson, NBC News, Miami.

[2:31] >> Well, of course, many questions raised

[2:32] here. Professor Jacqueline Glover

[2:33] specializes in medical ethics at

[2:35] Georgetown University in Washington.

[2:37] She's with us this evening. Good

[2:38] evening, Professor. I think a key

[2:40] question many people are asking is does

[2:42] the brain have to be dead in order for

[2:44] the person to be declared brain dead?

[2:47] >> There's a lot of confusion around the

[2:48] term brain death. Um I think the

[2:50] consensus moral that's behind the legal

[2:53] consensus is that yes, whole brain death

[2:56] is the appropriate thing. You'll hear

[2:57] people using the term brain death when

[2:59] they just mean brain damaged or in the

[3:02] case of this baby now while her brain

[3:04] stem is still working.

[3:06] >> So, you think that the ethical verdict

[3:07] in this case is the same as the legal

[3:09] court verdict in the state of Florida?

[3:11] >> It's obviously a very troubling case. Um

[3:15] one's heart goes out to the family and

[3:16] can understand um why they would want um

[3:19] to have some good, something meaningful

[3:21] come out of this tragic circumstance.

[3:24] But, I think there are also um serious

[3:26] concerns on the other side.

[3:28] >> But, the judge here has allowed the

[3:30] removal of Theresa's non-vital organs,

[3:32] the kidneys for example. In In effect,

[3:35] in effect, isn't that acknowledging the

[3:36] baby is going to die anyway, perhaps the

[3:38] next few days?

[3:39] >> Yes, that's right. But, there is a

[3:41] difference between our obligations to um

[3:44] people who are already dead and our

[3:45] obligations to people who are dying.

[3:48] >> Jacqueline Glover, thank you for being

[3:49] with us this evening. Very difficult

[3:51] question. Well, as we cover our world

[3:54] this day, Bill Clinton under attack. How

[3:56] much scrutiny can he or any candidate

[3:58] stand? And on our daily difference this

[4:00] evening, the Berlin Wall, it is gone,

[4:03] but we look at a city and a nation

[4:05] still divided.

[4:09] And personal income, the biggest

[4:11] one-month jump in 3 years. Personal

[4:14] spending is also up in part because of

[4:16] early tax refunds and home owners

[4:18] refinancing their mortgages.

[4:20] Today, Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady

[4:22] said that the recovery could be

[4:24] threatened by rising interest rates. And

[4:26] one reason for that, it's much more

[4:28] difficult these days to find people in

[4:30] other countries who want to lend us

[4:32] money. NBC's Chief Economics

[4:34] Correspondent Irving R. Levine shows us

[4:36] what that could lead to.

[4:39] >> For Lee Huff, who runs a home appliance

[4:41] company, declining interest rates perked

[4:44] up sales, but he's worried that that is

[4:47] changing.

[4:48] >> If the interest rates go up, I think

[4:49] it's just going to

[4:50] kill the goose that's laying the golden

[4:52] egg.

[4:53] Uh really, it's going to just put a

[4:55] kibosh on everything that's been headed

[4:57] in a positive direction.

[4:59] >> The exploding US budget deficit is

[5:02] nudging rates higher. The US government

[5:05] is borrowing money at the rate of

[5:06] $13,000 a second to pay its bills. But

[5:10] borrowing money is getting tougher.

[5:13] Japan, the main foreign lender to the

[5:15] US, has been hit by a plunging stock

[5:18] market and has cut back sharply on

[5:20] lending. Germany, another big lender, is

[5:23] now itself borrowing money to modernize

[5:26] East German industry.

[5:28] >> Germany and the United States are now

[5:30] com- competitors for funds

[5:33] from worldwide lenders.

[5:36] >> Countries in the Persian Gulf are

[5:38] strapped by heavy costs of the Gulf War.

[5:41] >> The Persian Gulf, which used to be a

[5:42] huge supplier of capital to the United

[5:44] States and the world as a whole, now is

[5:46] a net borrower, is a drain on world

[5:49] financial resources.

[5:50] >> Money from overseas is running dry at

[5:53] the very time the US economy shows signs

[5:56] of reviving with business and

[5:58] individuals borrowing more. This added

[6:01] demand for money on top of the

[6:02] government's relentless borrowing will

[6:04] push up interest rates. The feared

[6:07] result?

[6:08] >> We will have a screeching halt to

[6:09] whatever recovery we have and what many

[6:11] economists have been concerned about is

[6:13] having a double dip recession. Unless

[6:15] the foreign money starts coming back in

[6:17] in a big way, we'll have a sharp rise in

[6:19] interest rates that will choke off the

[6:20] recovery itself.

[6:22] >> The US Treasury, which borrows $40

[6:24] billion this week, had to pay almost 1%

[6:28] more for the money than it did several

[6:30] weeks ago and mortgage rates have risen

[6:33] from 8% in January to 9% now.

[6:37] Irving R. Levine, NBC News, Washington.

[6:41] >> And our chief financial correspondent

[6:43] Mike Jensen is with us now to talk more

[6:45] about money and taxes, our taxes. Mike,

[6:47] Democratic candidate Jerry Brown, he has

[6:49] a an idea that's getting a lot of

[6:50] attention. Very simple, right? Flat tax

[6:52] rate for everyone.

[6:54] Sounds good. Is it going to work?

[6:56] >> Eric, Jerry Brown presents his tax plan

[6:58] very effectively when he's out there on

[7:00] the stump. He starts by telling people

[7:02] he's going to clean the slate.

[7:05] >> Get rid of the income tax, the 15.3%

[7:09] payroll, abolish the corporate, abolish

[7:11] the gift, abolish the estate, but get

[7:14] rid of the gasoline tax, the telephone

[7:15] tax, the airplane tax. If you find more,

[7:17] we'll get rid of those, too.

[7:19] >> In their place, Brown would have

[7:20] identical taxes of 13% for all

[7:23] individuals and businesses.

[7:26] >> Now,

[7:27] the 13% flat tax,

[7:30] together with a 13% value added on all

[7:34] goods and services, will produce the

[7:36] same amount of money as is now

[7:38] collected.

[7:38] >> That's what he says and voters love it,

[7:41] including sociology professor Jim

[7:43] Hannah.

[7:44] >> think it will work. It's It's designed

[7:45] to take out some of the loopholes.

[7:48] >> But most economists don't think it will

[7:50] work. They say Brown's tax rate of 13%

[7:54] is so low it wouldn't produce enough

[7:56] revenue.

[7:57] And that his plan would help the rich,

[7:59] but hurt the poor and middle class.

[8:02] According to one independent study,

[8:04] someone making $8,000 a year would pay

[8:07] almost $2,000 more in taxes.

[8:11] A person who makes $32,000

[8:14] would pay $1,700

[8:16] more.

[8:17] But a person making $132,000

[8:21] would pay $8,600

[8:23] less.

[8:25] As for companies, Brown says they'd pay

[8:27] a lot more because of his value-added

[8:30] tax.

[8:30] >> There was a time when corporations and

[8:33] individuals paid about 50% each. Now

[8:37] it's 80% individuals, 20% corporate. We

[8:40] put that balance back to where it was in

[8:42] 1950.

[8:44] >> Again, it sounds good, but companies

[8:47] would raise their prices to cover the

[8:48] new taxes, and the consumer would end up

[8:51] paying.

[8:53] Brown says privately that he'd make it

[8:55] all work, adjust the numbers, do

[8:57] whatever it takes.

[8:59] >> But most analysts say Jerry Brown has

[9:01] taken two legitimate economic ideas, the

[9:03] flat tax and the value-added tax, and

[9:06] put them together in a way that simply

[9:07] doesn't work, Garrick.

[9:09] >> Well, Mike, let's separate these two

[9:10] taxes, but VAT, value-added tax, many

[9:12] European nations use it. How does it

[9:14] actually work? A company sells a

[9:16] product, and it is taxed on that part of

[9:18] the product that it's actually

[9:20] responsible for. In other words, it buys

[9:22] materials from some other company that

[9:24] has already been taxed. It then adds

[9:26] some value, and it's taxed on that

[9:28] value. A lot of economists call that a

[9:31] stealth tax because it never shows up on

[9:34] the sales receipt as a tax. It's simply

[9:37] added to the price of the product, so

[9:39] the consumer pays it.

[9:41] >> The income tax, if you just had a flat

[9:43] income tax, 14, 15% for everybody, does

[9:46] that idea by itself, excluding VAT, have

[9:49] validity?

[9:49] >> A lot of economists think that it

[9:51] probably does if it was up around the

[9:53] level of say 17%

[9:55] and what Jerry Brown likes in all of

[9:57] this is what he calls an elegant

[9:58] solution that he charges 13% on the

[10:01] value-added tax, 13% on the income tax

[10:03] and somehow magically it all works. He's

[10:06] taken two very good ideas and they don't

[10:08] work the way he's put them together.

[10:09] Mike Jensen, thanks for being with us

[10:11] this evening. Jerry Brown, of course,

[10:13] has been attacking Bill Clinton on what

[10:15] is called the character issue and the

[10:17] question arises, how much scrutiny can

[10:20] or should any candidate be subjected to?

[10:24] Here's the question with NBC's Andrew

[10:25] Mitchell.

[10:26] >> A frequent sight on the Clinton campaign

[10:28] trail, the candidate interrupting his

[10:30] schedule to explain accusations in the

[10:32] morning paper.

[10:33] >> It's just false. It's just they're

[10:35] false.

[10:35] >> The charge on the front page of today's

[10:37] New York Times that Clinton watered down

[10:39] an Arkansas ethics law to exempt himself

[10:42] and his wife.

[10:43] >> Nobody ever even discussed that issue.

[10:46] None of the good government groups ever

[10:47] even thought about it. Nobody ever

[10:49] brought that up.

[10:50] >> Clinton had pushed for a tougher ethics

[10:52] law covering himself. The legislature

[10:54] killed it. He says he and good

[10:56] government groups then took a compromise

[10:58] bill directly to the voters and they

[10:59] approved it. Today's story was only the

[11:02] latest in a series of front page

[11:03] allegations, some of which have not

[11:05] fully checked out. But they are instant

[11:08] fodder for Jerry Brown who then

[11:10] exaggerates the newspaper story.

[11:12] >> Look, the thing with Clinton is you we

[11:13] say you got a scandal a week and the

[11:16] whole way they do business in Arkansas

[11:18] is not like the way you would expect of

[11:20] a president or the White House.

[11:22] >> The pressure seemed to finally get to

[11:23] Clinton last night when he was

[11:25] interrupted by an AIDS protester.

[11:27] >> And I'm sick and tired of all these

[11:28] people who don't know me, know nothing

[11:30] about my life, know nothing about the

[11:32] battles I fought, knows nothing about

[11:33] the life I've lived, makes snotty-nosed

[11:35] remarks about how I haven't done

[11:37] anything in my life and it's all driven

[11:39] by ambition. That's bull.

[11:40] >> Who said that?

[11:41] >> On the Today program, Paul Tsongas

[11:43] sympathized.

[11:44] >> It gets to everybody.

[11:46] You don't realize what it's like to be

[11:47] in this vortex.

[11:49] You have everybody screaming at you.

[11:51] >> Clinton has had his share of glowing

[11:53] cover stories, but at least 20 national

[11:55] reporters have been combing through the

[11:56] files at the state capital in Little

[11:58] Rock looking for dirt.

[12:00] Clinton's problem is that the more he

[12:02] has to defend his record in Arkansas,

[12:04] the less time he has to explain what

[12:06] kind of president he would be.

[12:09] Andrea Mitchell, NBC News, Washington.

[12:12] >> On Wall Street today, concerns over

[12:14] lower corporate earnings pushed stocks

[12:16] down [music] sharply in moderate

[12:17] trading. For the week, the Dow was off

[12:19] nearly 45 points. [music]

[12:22] United, at least on the map, but in the

[12:24] minds of many Germans, there is still a

[12:26] division. In Berlin, NBC's Mike Betcha.

[12:31] >> Where it stood is clearly marked.

[12:34] What it did is plainly visible.

[12:37] How it fell is unforgettable.

[12:40] Why then it is missed is hard to

[12:42] explain.

[12:45] When the wall that surrounded Berlin was

[12:47] gouged from the landscape, a 100-mile

[12:49] scar was left behind, a place where hope

[12:51] and despair battle for Germany's heart.

[12:54] For millions of East Germans, it is a

[12:55] vicious circle leading nowhere.

[12:57] >> Although the physical barrier was

[12:59] breached 2 and 1/2 years ago, a mental

[13:01] divide still exists between the two

[13:03] Germanys. Nearly a half century of

[13:05] separation has not been easily overcome.

[13:08] Eric and Matthias, Berliners from the

[13:10] East, are old enough to remember when

[13:12] the wall restricted their play. Now,

[13:14] they can freely roll their wagon through

[13:16] two ugly symbols of Germany's past, the

[13:19] former no-man's-land between East and

[13:20] West and Hitler's bunker, the mound from

[13:23] where they begin their wagon ride.

[13:25] However, it is the present, not the

[13:27] past, which scares the two boys. When

[13:29] the police state died, the crime rate in

[13:31] Eastern Berlin soared.

[13:36] "It's more gruesome. It's worse."

[13:37] observed Matthias. "There are a lot of

[13:39] murders, and I'm afraid to go outside

[13:41] and play after school."

[13:44] But if crime and fear followed freedom

[13:46] eastward, so did hope. Anke Bernhardt, a

[13:48] childhood communist, is in love with a

[13:50] new American boyfriend and new freedoms.

[13:55] "Now I can do what I want to do." she

[13:57] says, "and be what I want to be, if I'm

[14:00] good at it."

[14:02] Continuing up the wall's old path,

[14:03] however, towards an obsolete East German

[14:05] turbine plant, and optimism fades.

[14:08] The antiquated factory was purchased by

[14:10] a Western German company, and more than

[14:12] half of its workforce was fired in the

[14:14] drive to modernize.

[14:16] The survivors are grateful, but worried.

[14:19] "We feel insecure because we don't know

[14:21] what the future holds." said one worker.

[14:23] "Somehow we feel like we've been

[14:25] betrayed."

[14:27] Through a classroom window, the

[14:28] factory's new unemployed can see the

[14:30] wall that shaped their communist lives,

[14:32] then left them naked to democracy's new

[14:34] ideas.

[14:36] The unified German government is

[14:37] training them for new jobs, but

[14:39] Margarita believes prosperity will not

[14:41] come in her lifetime.

[14:44] "I imagine that I'll be qualified and

[14:47] unemployed until I retire."

[14:50] There is little point in longing for the

[14:52] old days. What's past is past. The

[14:54] Toyota dealership, which was constructed

[14:56] where the wall once stood, is testament

[14:58] to irreversible change. Westerners don't

[15:01] shop here, however. Many of them resent

[15:03] the East for draining German resources

[15:05] as much as many Easterners resent the

[15:07] West. Michael Hess is the manager.

[15:10] >> I think the wall now is a little bit

[15:12] higher than before.

[15:15] >> Modern maps make no mention of the

[15:17] Berlin Wall.

[15:18] On paper, there is only one Germany.

[15:21] In reality, there are still two.

[15:25] Mike Betts here, NBC News, Berlin.

[15:28] >> In a moment, more news and a look at

[15:30] Mexico City's smog. It's out of control.

[15:34] >> [music]

[15:38] >> Vienna Court of Appeals asked for more

[15:40] information before it rules on freeing

[15:42] Tyson pending an appeal.

[15:45] Austrian President Kurt Waldheim, banned

[15:47] from visiting the US because of his Nazi

[15:49] past, was greeted in Germany by

[15:51] Chancellor Helmut Kohl. Responding to

[15:53] Jewish protests over the visit, Kohl

[15:55] snapped, quote,

[15:57] I don't need advice.

[15:59] An Aeroflot passenger jet landed in

[16:00] Armenia heavily damaged by anti-aircraft

[16:03] fire and a missile over neighboring

[16:04] Azerbaijan. It was hit after taking off

[16:06] from the disputed territory of

[16:07] Nagorno-Karabakh.

[16:10] And on Assignment Earth tonight, Mexico

[16:12] City, the largest city on Earth, 20

[16:15] million people breathing the world's

[16:17] filthiest air. It has gone from bad to

[16:20] intolerable, choking the very life of

[16:22] the city. NBC's Dana Carvey is there.

[16:27] >> The air of Mexico City at its worst.

[16:32] Javier is one of its youngest victims.

[16:34] He can't shake a racking cough. His

[16:36] mother blames bad air.

[16:38] 5-year-old Guillermina suffers spasms

[16:41] and vomits phlegm.

[16:43] When she runs, she feels like she's

[16:45] choking.

[16:46] In the last 2 weeks, since small

[16:47] readings hit an all-time high, patients

[16:50] have crowded into hospitals.

[16:52] Doctors tick off a litany of complaints

[16:54] they attribute to the smog. Sore

[16:56] throats, skin lesions, viral infections,

[17:00] conjunctivitis.

[17:01] They don't know the long-term effects.

[17:04] The government downplays smog's danger.

[17:08] It's not clear there are serious risks

[17:09] for the general population.

[17:12] The ministry's advice, take vitamins and

[17:14] close your windows.

[17:16] Like Los Angeles, Mexico City is an

[17:19] urban valley ringed by mountains that

[17:21] trap smog. But until recently, the

[17:23] dangers of pollution here have been

[17:24] ignored. Most cars are fueled by leaded

[17:27] gas, and industrial emissions have gone

[17:30] largely unchecked.

[17:31] President Salinas this week announced

[17:33] emergency measures, anti-pollution

[17:35] devices for factories, and more driving

[17:37] restrictions. The smog crisis is an

[17:39] embarrassment to President Salinas,

[17:42] who's trying to portray Mexico as modern

[17:44] and advanced. But the fact is, even if

[17:46] you don't get sick from the bad air, you

[17:48] do have to change your routine.

[17:50] In the morning, check out a smog

[17:52] billboard. Find out how dangerous the

[17:54] air is today.

[17:55] Exercise at your own risk, or buy a gas

[17:58] mask. Business is booming.

[18:01] >> It's a small price to pay for a little

[18:03] protection.

[18:04] >> At schools, outside playtime is parceled

[18:07] out like cookies and milk. None on bad

[18:09] smog days.

[18:11] >> We decided that we won't cancel breaks

[18:13] or for uh play activities or uh physical

[18:17] education lessons at all.

[18:21] >> People here are trying to cope with the

[18:22] worst air in the world, or make a joke

[18:25] of it.

[18:26] Diana Coriki, NBC News, Mexico City.

[18:30] >> An important business deal to report

[18:31] this evening, the US government will buy

[18:33] Russian space technology beginning with

[18:36] a nuclear space reactor. The technology

[18:38] had been kept secret, but now Russia

[18:40] wants the sale and needs the dollar.

[18:45] >> [music]

[18:47] >> And if you don't know

[18:49] And how will you do it?

[18:51] >> [music]

[18:55] >> With the one who guides you every step

[18:58] of the way.

[18:59] >> Throughout the world, it can be roasted,

[19:02] blended, filtered, and ground. And now

[19:05] there are other exotic things you can do

[19:07] with coffee as well, as NBC's Keith

[19:09] Morrison has discovered.

[19:11] >> All right, what can I get for you today?

[19:12] How was your grand day last week?

[19:13] >> Ah, Santa Monica, one of the true

[19:15] capitals of yuppie hip. And Santa

[19:18] Monica, like a lot of hip corners of the

[19:20] country, has discovered specialty

[19:22] coffee.

[19:23] >> Espresso is so high fuel that it it

[19:26] really gets me going before I work out.

[19:28] >> A scary thought, but trendy?

[19:31] Up in Seattle, they're chuckling at

[19:33] backward California.

[19:34] >> I want a double tall skinny, please.

[19:36] >> A double tall what? In Seattle, the

[19:39] coffee capital of America, they have a

[19:41] whole new way of talking.

[19:43] >> It used to just be

[19:45] cappuccino, latte, and Americano.

[19:48] >> That's all there was.

[19:49] >> That was it.

[19:49] >> Yep.

[19:50] >> And now everybody's gone insane.

[19:52] >> A double decaf.

[19:54] >> Double tall mocha mint.

[19:56] >> Single tall clamor, skinny milk

[19:58] with vanilla.

[19:59] >> What's that? And imagine drinking this.

[20:03] >> It's like iced latte, but it's a slushy.

[20:06] So, it'd be like a a Coca-Cola or

[20:08] slushy, except for it's latte.

[20:10] >> Somehow, maybe it was the climate,

[20:12] Seattle just fell for coffee. You can't

[20:14] walk half a block without somebody

[20:16] offering you the best this or the

[20:17] freshest that.

[20:19] >> 28 espresso places within a two-block

[20:23] radius of here. You know, I don't know

[20:25] why.

[20:26] >> Actually, people in Seattle say they

[20:28] don't have near enough coffee stands.

[20:30] And they say coffee in the rest of the

[20:31] country is no fun.

[20:33] So, why bother?

[20:35] You can buy a why bother at McDonald's.

[20:38] That's decaf espresso with nonfat milk.

[20:40] You can load up on caffeine at

[20:42] bookstores, at high school espresso

[20:45] stands,

[20:46] at a dentist's office.

[20:48] >> Yeah.

[20:52] Yeah, it's really it's really beautiful.

[20:55] >> You find here a kind of Messianic zeal

[20:57] about coffee.

[21:00] And what do they think about plain old

[21:02] American coffee?

[21:03] >> I'd rather

[21:04] stay thirsty than drink normal American

[21:07] coffee.

[21:08] >> So then, somebody says

[21:11] >> They must be from California.

[21:12] >> Yeah.

[21:13] >> Yeah, they must be from California.

[21:16] >> Keith Morrison, NBC News, Seattle.

[21:19] >> And that's our look at our world this

[21:20] day. Tom Brokaw will be back on Monday,

[21:22] and I'll be here tomorrow night. I'm

[21:24] Garrick Utley. Good night [music] for

[21:25] NBC News.
