The Tax Reform Act that was promoted to be a tax simplification turned into the Tax Complication Act for most of us. Just another hoax perpetrated on the gullible American taxpayers by the politicians in Washington.
Under tax reform we are paying more in federal tax, and as a result more in state taxes. Many of the changes are incomprehensible and so confusing that the average taxpayer can no longer do his own return with any feeling of confidence, so has had to resort to dishing out still more hard-earned bucks for professional help.
