I would argue that having to file taxes through a 3rd party accountant or service is not only forced commerce but also broken glass economics. Looks like it helps the economy by creating jobs but the job is redundant and does not create anything of value.
Where are crimes more likely to occur, a city with 10,000 or 1 million? Where are financial crimes more likely to occur, people that make $10,000 a year or people that make $1 million or more a year. I rather have these accounts move into forensic work and go after the wealthy tax evaders.
IRS is an enforcement agency that specializes in tax collection and fraud. People that are clamoring for reduced IRS staffing are ultimately support of defending the police. I rather have a well staff IRS going after those that evade paying their taxes, probability speaking the wealthy.
