      Except why do private companies handle taxes at all? That’s not their business and the government should be able to handle it all themselves. Take your smugness and shove it.

          Why are you so upset about the USPS? We have private companies that do what it does better.

          If you can’t see the problem with the above statement you need to swallow your tongue.

      “not forced to use them”

      This ignores obnoxious hurdles in place to make the free tier as shitty as possible so people buy.

      “cover your own ass for mistakes” Well can you personally guarantee that these asshats won’t create traps and gotcha’s along the way?

      Depends on specifics. I haven’t been able to use the free tier for years. These companies collect all kinds of data from its users too.
