No more personal exemptions.
Nevertheless, something like half of all taxpayers with simple returns still have their taxes done by somebody else. I've only done it once, and only because I wanted to e-file and it was back in the day before anybody could do it. I could have paid for Turbotax but it cost less to have a tax preparer do it for me.
We should do things the way some European countries do. If you have a simple return, the government does the calculation (the IRS already has all the information it needs), sends you a letter telling you if you overpaid/underpaid, how much your refund is or how much you owe, give you a time period to contest. No need to even file a return.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
