I'm not a tax lawyer, but I submit that the main problem is the tax code itself... then the IRS... then various contradictory Court decisions... and THEN the damned (with a few "saved") lawyers.
Bill -- my wife is a saint, namely because she puts up with me.
But even she has her limits.
For a while, I was keeping a copy of the Code and Regs (8 total volumes) on my nightstand and I would wake up in the middle of the night and start reading. She put a stop to that.
Other times, she would ask me what I was working on (when I came home late) and when I started to tell her, she would make it clear it she really did not care.
"Faith and reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth; and God has placed in the human heart a desire to know the truth—in a word, to know himself—so that, by knowing and loving God, men and women may also come to the fullness of truth about themselves"

Where do you think the problem lies (pun intended!) (*GRIN*), Anthony?
More important, how does one deal with - correct - the problem?
Your thoughts...?

I am a tax lawyer, and one problem is that I find myself constantly speaking in jargon and code sections.
