So paying $39 to a private company (not mandatory btw, you don't need to go with Intuit or TaxAct or HrBlock or etc), is evil incarnate... ...but the thousands of dollars my wife paid directly to the government two years ago for he

So are we really going to go through the entire tax code and all of the potential use cases of median individuals, all so that we can conclude that the government needs to predict our deductions in advance so that you don't have to spe

How will the government know how much you have spent on gas without you telling them? Furthermore, my taxes take me less than 1 hour per year. I prefer the current system where I tell them what I think I owe. If they told me what I owed, an

How would the government know what deductions you are applying for before you apply for them?

What is the nature of your income, such that it requires a 50 page booklet? The normal W2 worker does not need such a booklet. I am not saying that you should tough something out for no reason. I have electricity coming to my house to make

Does it stand to reason that the average person does not have multiple business entities in multiple locations? You are getting scammed by the government, who have made it burdensome to report all of this income. A tax professional or a ser

Agreed. $10 for some TBs is much cheaper than the time I spend deciding if I will need something or not. Very similar to just buying a few more items at the grocery than I normally would. My time is so incredibly important that it's no

How would it be possible for 4 years of education to cost just $10,000? The cost of my food for 4 years is higher than that alone. My tuition was around $15,000 per year. You are more than welcome to investigate where that disappears to (pr

Not sure I understand this sentiment. I went to a good university, majored in history, took out 100k in debt totally for said degree, and have been working as a programmer ever since. Why does my outcome feel so rare? I think 100k was a fai

Wait, what? I'm actually genuinely interested in clarifying this for myself. If Amazon gives me a contract on day one that says they will give me 5 shares on day one, 15 shares on day 366, 40 shares on day 732, and 40 shares on day 109

I mean this in all sincerity: don't treat an Amazon interview seriously. If you must, use it for practice. Employment stability is much more important than what I call "alleged compensation". They hire you promising $160,000
