IRS boss says he can feel for angry taxpayers
The Associated Press
DETROIT — The head of the Internal Revenue Service is wishing both taxpayers and his 120,000 employees many happy returns, but he said he shares the frustrations many people encounter when filing their taxes
"Our job, and I think the biggest challenge of the '90s in the agency, is to make filing easier." IRS commissioner Fred Goldberg Jr. told reporters yesterday before addressing the Economic Club of Detroit. "Grab any IRS employee, and they'll tell you the same thing."
Goldberg, 41, head of the agency since July 1989, said current IRS forms and regulations are more than even he can handle — and he has an economics degree from Yale University, worked with a Washington, D.C., law firm and for nine years with the IRS.
"The law is terribly complicated. It is too complicated for the American public. They deserve an easier system, and I deserve an easier system, too," said Goldberg, who estimated he spent three hours gathering information for his 1980 return to present to a tax preparer.
With the tax filing deadline less than a week away, Goldberg said, the IRS is receiving more returns earlier and processing them faster. He gave much of the credit to electronic filing, in which tax information is forwarded to the IRS by computer.
A return filed electronically this week will be processed within two to three weeks, compared with six to eight weeks for a standard return done on paper and mailed to the IRS, Goldberg said.
Errors appear in fewer than 4 percent of electronic returns, compared with about 15 percent of paper returns, he said.
But Goldberg said the light touch he envisions must mesh with a tough but respectful attitude.
President Bush's proposed 1991 budget includes additional money for the IRS to upgrade service and employee training, Goldberg said.
He said he hoped new training would help employees "try and keep a lighter touch. By doing that, you collect more revenue."
The IRS also is doing its part to cut the error rate by giving more accurate information to taxpayers, Goldberg said. The agency is giving correct answers to 78 percent of the inquiries it has received this year, compared with 62 percent last year, he said.
"We are held accountable for collecting revenues, and I think we do a good job of it," he said. "There are more than 100 million people out there who do pay their taxes, and I do think (those) folks are looking to us to go after those who don't."
Atlanta crime capital for second year
The Associated Press
"This did for the reputation of Atlanta what the Titanic did for the reputation of ocean liners. The bureaucracy and bureaucracy of Darden Research, said yesterday.
ATLANTA — Atlanta's designation as the nation's big-city crime capital for the second consecutive year is a public relations disaster that could affect the city's bid to host the 1996 Olympics, a pollster said.
According to The Atlanta Constitution, which analyzed FBI statistics for 1989 that were released Sunday, Atlanta had the highest number of
serious crimes reported per 1,000 population of any big city — those with at least 300,000 residents during 1989.
The Atlanta figure was 210 per 1,000. Miami ranked second with 189 per 1,000; Dallas was third with 168 per 1,000.
The crimes counted include murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny and auto theft.
Similar crimes counted in 1988 also ranked Atlanta first, followed by Fort Worth, Texas, and Dallas.
