    There will always be some complexities in tax codes, but I think there is broad consensus that our current tax system is unnecessarily complicated. Taxes could be simplified pretty dramatically to the point where individual tax filings are close to automatic and don’t require third party companies. Taxes will always be a complex issue, but that definitely doesn’t mean we should accept that paying large for-profit tax preparation companies should be the norm for your average citizen. It certainly isn’t that way in some other highly developed countries.
