To be fair: Filing your taxes in the US is free. No one is going to force you to pay someone to do them for you, which is what TurboTax and the like are doing, usually through software.
If you don't understand the tax forms, though, or can't figure out the codes, you are stuck paying someone. The IRS won't give definitive answers if you call them.
