That's true, but for those who don't do 1040EZ, I'm annoyed that companies like TurboTax and the like even exist.

If the tax code is so complicated that you need to hire a specialist to file your taxes, then the tax system is too complicated.

OR, the government should have it's OWN on-line tax filing service that does exactly what TurboTax and the like do - for free.
