With the way these conversations often go back and forth, I sometimes wonder how many people have actually done their own taxes by hand with the official forms, vs have only ever used some program or service.
I think the way people think about tax is it’s a chore to be done. And offloading it to someone else is good capitalist specialization.
But I think when you understand tax policy you think and act differently in regards to financial decision. So outsourcing it reduces insight into think that perhaps most impacts middle class finances besides job.
