handle is hein.gao/gaobabahd0001 and id is 1 raw text is: - - I( IW1 0 BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL Report To The Congress OF THE UNITED STATES U.S. Income Security System Needs Leadership, Policy, And Effective Management The costs of income security programs have soared by 250 percent over the past 10 years, making them the largest part of the Federal budget. These programs come under constant criticism for being too profuse, inequitable, inefficient, difficult to manage, and discour- aging individuals from working. Taken together, these multibillion dollar tax and transfer programs affect every American's present and future well-being. For these reasons, GAO formed a task force to study the income security system. The income security system lacks overall leadership. Because of the system's far reaching social impacts, deeply rooted diffi culties, and projected future cost growth, the time has come to fill the leadership void and bring about changes in its policymaking, management, and evaluation. GAO believes such changes can best be brought about through an independent, national body, such as a National Income Security Commission, dedicated to helping the Congress and execu- tive branch meet their program responsibil- ities. 1111111111111111 111679 00o809 HR D-80-33 FEBRUARY 29, 1980 # ° npe',Jp
