    Eat shit, lobbying to make simple tax returns something you have to pay Turbo Tax, H&R Block, etc for.

      I don’t know much about investing, but i wonder if it would it be a good time to short those companies?

        If you don’t know much about investing then you shouldn’t short anything ever. People who know about investing will tell you that even when your logic is 100 percent sound, the market isn’t that predictable and in general the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.

    Free if you have no other exemptions to file.

    1099? Nope Depreciation? Nope Tax credits? Nope

    Makes for a great headline though.

    Im sure those of us that do have exemptions other than the standard will see our tax prep fees skyrocket

        Some people in the USA want a solution that immediately fixes every possible problem, and don’t quite get the concept of starting small and fixing other stuff over time.

        It’s the same with gun control. Some states want to tighten gun laws, and some people are like “that won’t solve all the problems! We need nationwide laws!”. Sure, but why not accept the win that more and more states are starting to do something, rather than complaining that some problems still exist?
