Another Nominee, Another Tax Problem

The Governor of Kansas, up for Health and Human Services, and her husband, a Federal Magistrate Judge, discovered another $7K in taxes owed. The question all this should prompt is

if a governor and her Federal Judge Husband cannot understand the tax return process, who can?

How about some real change, an elimination of the Tax Coded altogether? I would favor a repeal of hte 16th amendment or we would end up with both a sale sand income tax.   A national sales tax would be preferable but then of course politicians could not dispense tax favors for campaign contributions.

    I agree, why should it be so darn hard to do taxes. Then again, what would we need the wonderful accountants for if everyone could do taxes. As far as the governor and her judge husband, probably just another oops didn’t realize we needed to pay that sort of problem.

    Answer, this would free accountants from the Bob Crachit image they have by doing taxes. Perhaps accountants could start doing what they should be doing, helping clients figure break even points and understanding how to better make money in their businesses.
