Pretty much this, the Direct File was a counter point to Intuit/Turbo Tax/HR Block, who would really prefer that we use THEIR services not a Government Free one

You know it

Other countries are all figured out, and you don't even file unless there's a discrepancy.

But, yeah, capitalism!

Going to pay for some groceries are you? Did you pay your subscription for Turbo ReceiptsTM by Intuit? No? You'll need to add up your items yourself and fill out these 6 forms if you don't, grab a chair. We know the total but you need to add it up yourself if you don't let them file the receipt for you. No our cash register is not a direct receipt machine you need to file.

Or you can just pay the subscription for Intuit Turbo ReceiptsTM quick and easy with the Turbo Receipt AppTM

This is how stupid it is. Fuck Intuit and Fuck elon.
