Tax Rant

I HATE tax time. W and I don't have rental property, sell stocks yearly or have the necessary amount of children to merit spending hundreds of dollars to have someone else file our taxes. So we fork over the $75 or so to file our taxes online through TurboTax. And this is the second year in a row that several glitches in the system have caused us to call in to the customer support center for Intuit. (You would have thought we had learned from last year. You'd be wrong.)

Several non-English speaking call center employees later and we still can't file our taxes. Can we just go to a fair tax system in the U.S. for everyone who makes a wage large enough to feed and clothe their families? Then we wouldn't have to go through all of this mess!

Next year I'm using TaxCut or a CPA.
