Not a comment on the tax proposals since they don't impact me but I do get a chuckle out of the constant theme in government about how they are going to simplify the Tax Code, we get it all the time too.

They introduce a thick book of regulations which are designed to make things simpler. Then they have grandfather provisions, some rules phasing in and out while others are permanent, exceptions to the rules etc., etc.

All to make it simpler of course.

And then, if you get a little refund (a refund of your money), you are supposed to applaud your government.

It's quite a racket.
