Meanwhile Maine is also shutdown because the House wouldn't approve a budget that gutted everything and replaced social services with a picture of LePage's fat face screaming "PORK!" at poor people.

WARNING! INTRUDERS DETECTED

Doctor Spaceman posted:

US taxes are deliberately designed to be hard to fill out

Not just the tax service companies' lobbying, but the GOP has a perverse incentive to make taxes and the IRS (and government in general) as "awful" as possible so they can be taken behind the barn and killed off. Keeping tax rates the same but making filing taxes easier is anathema to them because people shouldn't be happy about paying taxes.

I vaguely remember calculating tax rates on different income brackets as a math problem in seventh grade (in Finland) and talking about tax rates in the economy module of social studies class. I guess that would be out of the question in US schools.

Someday at least it will be far enough in the future the tendency to compress time will at least make it seem like trump and the invention of cell phones happened at the same time and people will be able to tell it as a cute story of "look at these olde timey people not knowing any better"

The GOP would move the April 15th tax filing deadline day to the first Monday in November if they could get away with it.

They're never going to have any findings, their going to leak all the info they're able to gather to other parties so they can engage in institutional and private disenfranchisement.

Imagine knowing what neighborhoods have high turnout of blue voters and turning that info over to an alt right militia group. They could literally show up and scare people into not leaving their homes.
