gollark: Unrelatedly, I recently harvested this meme:
gollark: There is apparently lobbying by TurboTax which FORCES the government to not be helpful wrt. taxes.
gollark: There seems to be a lot of arguing over having the federal government do or not do things to them based on ~zero actual evidence and lots of emotional appeals.
gollark: Oh, and the way you have to manually "file" taxes sounds bad.
gollark: Also whatever America is doing with guns.
