It's not TurboTax, it's Grover Norquist. Republicans are already ideologically against easy tax filing because they're against taxes, they don't need corporate backing for that.
Using OpenSecrets in particular is misleading because it shows you donations fron "employees of corporations" to political campaigns and then people pretend it's donations from "corporations", which is obviously not the same thing. (and not allowed either)

- astrange 2y ago> Intuit gives money to representatives No they don't. Corporations can't give money to representatives. That's exactly why I just said OpenSecrets is misleading.
