    Libraries also provide help when filing taxes.
    Even if that internet thing was a argument.

      I just find it amazing that in the US you have to file your own taxes. It seems purposefully stupid.

      Surely you could just lie, so obviously they have to calculate the taxes themselves so why do they have you do it the first time?

        There are private companies that calculate your taxes for you at a fee.

        They then lobby the government to keep the system as is.
