>make the tax process easier, more efficient, and less burdensome
One factor that makes the tax code so complicated is that incentives are often placed in the tax code instead of passing legislation.
Say you want to promote the cultivation of industrial hemp (yeah right) you could pass a law incentivizing it or put some tax credit into the tax code.
It's as if the tax code has 70 years of technical debt in it from all these little tweaks and fixes that have been added to it.
