Filing Taxes Last Minute? H & R Block Tax Preparation Easy and Fast

If you are looking for a last minute recommendation to filing your taxes, I haven't experienced a better service than H & R Block.  In less than 30 minutes, you can file your taxes at www.HRBlock.com and it's free unless you have some crazy deductions or need to file a Schedule C for a small business.  If you have a couple of businesses, you will only be charged once for one or more Schedule C's.

It's well worth the $34.99 they charge for those extra business write-offs.  H & R Block has continuously improved their website useability and overall cover almost every dreaded IRS income tax detail to the very last stone which they do not leave unturned.  It has been a very good service, it's just, well.... unfortunate that we Americans do it to ourselves and have voted for politicians and created such a monstrous machine.

Why do we subject ourselves to the torture of having to file taxes?   Seriously.

...It's just unfortunate and a waste of our country's resources and collective time that we have this silly annual filing fest in the first place

Why can't it just be a simple pay-as-you-go and WHY, someone please tell me, WHY do we tax peoples' income of all things?!  Taxing income is the most counter-productive, idiotic, self-destructive scam ever invented.  There's no surer way to hold back a nation's potential, burden the poor, and encourage waste, fraud, and sloth.  Why do we punish people for working to put food on the table?  Why do we discourage industry and productivity so directly?  Why don't we just come out and say it -- "If you work you will have to pay for the privilege."  How stupid can you get?

I know what you're going to say, it's because we need to pay taxes for all the government provides us.  Do you really think the government provides us?  Is taxing income really the only way a government can get money from its citizens?  Really?!  Think about this -- your taxes are providing for the government and in return you get to categorize, file, claim, mail, vouch, record, stamp, sign, seal, file (again), notarize, pay, deposit, dispute, amend, stand in line like some paralegal clerk on endless fools errands.  Yes, all these fun things for us all to do, enacted by us all.

We're all a bunch of foolish chumps getting fleeced, out to turn hard working Americans into pencil pushing, paper filing, tie-wearing, accountant and attorney supporting misguided, misallocating sissies our predecessors, ancestors, forefathers, past titans of industry, previous philosophers and other real people who helped build this country with their blood and sweat would shake their head in disgust at.  We have lost our way, America.

For those who would also appreciate the absurdity of carrying a typewriter into a battlefield, I hope one day we regain our common sense and find a better way and lean our government to the size and scope the Constitution is meant to restrict it to -- before it's too late.

Until then, be a chump like me and file your taxes on time then go to work and earn the right to do it again.  Aren't we lucky.  ... or start voting Libertarian!
