How Taxing
I like Jim Henley. He's a very smart guy, and terrifically nice both on-line and in person. Every now and then, though, he says something that's just completely alien to me. Such as his recent post about taxes, in which he notes that software makes doing your tax return too easy:
That means that we libertarians face a serious annoyance gap: not only are middle-class voters not feeling especially taxed, they're not feeling the pain of our bizarrely involuted tax code either.
Those lucky duckies.
Fred Clark also has some thoughts on income tax day, that I find a little more agreeable.
(Personally, I'm not feeling any pain at all-- Kate did our taxes, and I just signed the papers. I contributed nothing other than some faint bogglement that we make as much as we apparently do...)
