Grover Norquist has had Republicans sign "the Pledge" opposing tax increase since 1986. Reportedly, he also wants filing taxes to be painful so you hate the government and he opposes these measures. In 2005, California had a pilot program called ReadyReturn where they mailed you prefilled forms. It was popular. TurboTax lobbied against it and it died.
