Haha this is only their attempt to collect more data (than required on taxes) on US Citizens. Look at the process to sign up. It's obvious. If they really wanted to help the population file their taxes, they would just not require filing at all. They already know how much we make, so they know what we owe. At most, if liability is an issue, they should be sending us the tax information they already have on us and we just check off if its correct or not.
Bro... you've always had to supply data to the tax office so they could do their job - things like receipts. Now you get to do so digitally and easily, like most European countries with half a brain has done.
Do you know how much you save in tax spending by just automating and digitalising taxes? My guy, any other way is a waste of money and time, for the sake of wasting money and time.
