Yes Doug, I don't think Tom D does his own taxes, matter of fact NPR already addressed that issue. I agree with SRS, the Tax code is way beyond most of those who don't study this ever changing field. My mother went to the IRS to get her tax rebate for her buying a Prius, they couldn't help her, she never got it but I did. WHenthe people that made the code hire themselves out as pro's to help other wade throught the mine field & they get bombed who's to blame for the fuck up?
When a whole grade of school kids consistently fail their class it may not be the class that's at fault. Better go back & check the texts, the teacher, the subject matter & what level they think they're teaching to, and if the subject matter's just to hard for the ordinary seaman to navigate then it's the whole ship that's in trouble, not just the crew running it.
