Lol I wonder how much Intuit/H&R Block/etc paid for that article?

Ryan Ellis, the man who wrote this opinion article is a tax lobbyist and a senior tax advisor at the Family Business Coalition. The Family Business Coalition seems to be a tax industry sponsored organization that claims to protect America family businesses.

The only people who are able to take advantage of the tax filing system we have in place are the very rich or businesses owners. This does not apply to 95% of Americans. A automatic filing tax system would save millions of dollars a year on unnecessary fees charged by Intuit and the like.
