What tax prep companies do you know that are non-scummy (don't lobby against the IRS making tax returns easier and/or free)?

Intuit (Turbo Tax) and H&R Block are the main lobby against easy tax prep (spent millions per year), then the other 12 members of the ACTR are:

Tax Act

OnLine Taxes

Wolters Kluwer

Tax Hawk

Liberty Tax

Drake Software

Jackson Hewitt

also the following financial institutions:

Netspend

Republic Bank

TPG Santa Barbara

So who do you use that is not one of the 14 companies above (or owned/operated by them)?

Online or not, if they are a tax prep company, they have a strong financial incentive to stop tax prep from being free.
