      If you support Free Tax Filing then you must support the Unconstitutional Anti-American Income Tax.

      The Founding Fathers made a blood pact to NEVER do an income tax and ONLY raise money via Tariffs, which is the perfect and Godly way to generate tax revenues. Every president who has ever levied a national income tax has FAILED. And Trump isn’t going to fail this nation by letting people pay that tax for free.

      By abolishing the free filing provision, we are going to come one step closure to guaranteeing nobody (earning more than $500k/year) has to pay it again.

      Oh there’s still “IRS Free File”, which is a different thing where you have to go through a middle man to get it while they try their damndest to “upgrade” you to the paid version. And presumably they got some kind of money from the US gov either way.

      Direct File was a sane program that cut them out and let people file their taxes completely directly. The leeches lobbied against it.

          This is wrong. Socialism is not ‘getting a bailout’. It is a society that has a more equitable distribution of resources. It is a kind of society where bailouts are far less likely to be needed in the first place.

            Socialism is when workers control or own the means of production. How things are distributed is irrelevant.

              Communism is where workers own the means of production. Socialism is proposed as a step towards communism.
