Even with TurboTax, the amount of time I spend keeping records, filling buckets, and ruminating, just wears me out and leaves me feeling pretty low, especially after finding out I have to pay an AMT tax for the first time!
Why haven't those dopes in D.C. gotten rid of it!

I wish they would just simplify everything finally like they promised - take a (low) flat percentage of my income....and they could cut my taxes while their at it too...

The feds and the state should just get one free central online system, check a few things, fill in the income and forget all the other crud, you pay the state & Fed at same time, with direct debit or credit card, and then go back to sleep.

I figure I've spent at least 25 hours and I'm not done yet....
