And -that's only tl rough estimate.
The IRS stopped keeping track of the
tax gap in 1992, when the figure was
$128 billion. The truth is, our government's tax collecting agency really ha5 very little idea how much money is owed by delinquent taxpayers .
. To illustrate the magnitude of the
shortfall, consider that the entire federal deficit for 1996 was $107 billion.
That's about $43 billion less than the
· "tax gap" for that year.
Tax evaders come from all walks
of life and represent every income
· bracket. Some choose to ·hide a portion of their earnings from the IRS.
Others fail to pay the amount they
owe, and still others don't even bother completing a return.

How. many of these miscreants
will get cauJht? That's hard to say.
particularly since the IRS is so disorganized. In the real world, most
delinquent bills arc cleared up within 180 days. That's about tile time it
takes the !ItS to begin wondering
whether yo~r check was lost in the
mail.
.
The IRS estimate's that 48 pen:ent
of delinquent taxes will be ,written .
off. However, when auditors from the
General Accounting Office recently
reviewed cases that the IRS had
closed liS "currently not collectible,"
they found that 55 percent of those
taxes may have been collectible after
all .
Wheq the IRS does try to collect
unpaid taxes, it often makes mistakes.·
Last year,
tax collecting agency
sent out 30 rrillion penalty notices - and more tl)an half contained some
sort of error. Apparently exen IRS tax ..
collectors can't figure out 'the convoluted tax laws.

, COLUMBUS - Jose Mesa's acquittal last week on sex charges had more
tb'do with the prosecution's case against him than a recent change in Ohio's
&amp;..~ law, ~ays the Akron-area Republican who drafted the legislation.
· ''I'm of the belief that the facts of the case led to the verdict," Rep. Ann
Womer Benjamin, R-Aurora, said after ajufl' acquitted the Clevelan\llndians relief pitcher of rape, gross sexual imposition and theft. Two women who
m~t Mesa at a Cleveland nightclub on Dec. 22 said Mesa hadfondled them.
• Womer Benjamin -sponsored a state law that took effect Sept. 3 and
expanded the definition of rape to include "the insertion, however slight,
of any part of the body or any instrull)ent, apparatus or other object."
· The law was changed to protect victims - particularly children - who
. d&gt;uld not identify the object of penetration during an attack.
' But Cuyahoga County Judge Thomas Curran allowed the jury to consider
w~ether Mesa was guilty of the lesser charge of gross sexual imposition to
'' prevent a failure of justice."
.
Curran criticized the definition of rape in the new Ohio law.

· ·The charge of rape is a felony :with a three- to 10-ycar prison term. Gross
sexual imposition also is a felony, but carries a penalty of six to 18 months.
~ · curran 's comments were disturbing to rape victim advocates.
.
·:"It's frightening," said Nina Riccobono, director of the Columbus-area
Rape Treatment Program.
.
"A judge has an enormous sphere of influence" that transcends the courtroom, Ms. Riccobono said.'
Rape counselors and prosecutors already have to deal with the notion that
rape is.a sex crime more than a violent crime, she added. Curran's remarks
reinforce that idea.
· "It's a misguided interpretation of what the sexual assault survivor experiences after being penetrated in any way.'~ .
c ·. ,John Murphy. executive director oft he Ohio Prosecuting Attorneys Association, said Curran's comments were out of line.

As we've reported in the past, the
IRS has wasted several billion dollars
on a failed ·computer modeniization
effort. As a result, Congress is now
expected to appoint a boar~ to oversee the agency's operations. This
body will notliln the agency on a daily basis, but will look ove.r its shoulder to make sure things are. running
smoothly.
And when IRS Commissioner
Margaret Milner Richardson steps
down later this spring, as she's
promised, President Clinton is likely
to part with tradition and appOint a
manager -- not a tax attorney -- to
lead the agency. Right now, for
example, no high--IRS officials arc
required to have management skills,
which may cxplairy why the agency
is one of the most poorly run in the
federal government.
It 's no secret that the IRS couldn't pass one of its own audits. And
that may help explain why an increasing number of otherwise law-abiding
Americans are following the example
of criminals like AI Capone and
cheating on their taxes.

IRS loses billi()ns· in unpaid taxes

who have dotted the American land. scape over the years .
Philosopher Henry David Thorc_au, crime kingpin AI Capone and
Montana Freemen leader LeRoy
Schweitzer are just a few of the men

Farmers preparing for spring
plantings which require the help of
one or
workers should make
r._ure they are aware of ihe rules that
affect Social Security protection for
their workers.
According to Ed Peterson, many
fanners are still not familiar with
their Social Security reporting
responsibilities. ·
"When you hire help, you
become part of a system of income
protection that pays monthly Social
Security benefits to a worker and his
·or her ·family when the . worker
retires, becomes disabled, or dies.
It's important that you make sure his
or her earnings are properly reported
for this purpose," said Peterson. .
A farmer who employs workers
must keep records of the wages paid
and deduct the tax required . .report
