Almost as if the entire issue could be avoided and circumvented by having the government handle everything from their end by default since they already have all out tax and income data, but allow those who want to do more complicated filings or individual deductions above the default calculation the option to do so on the back end
Yeah, it might be true for federal taxes, but US tax system is complicated...
IDK the tax software already also does state taxes too, and asks about at least some relevant city taxes. The software can be made - we have it already. It just doesn't seem like the government couldn't run the same stuff we do at home really.
