Yeah, so I messed up on taxes by not selling my stock losses at the end of 2011. Now I’m left with a big bill to the IRS. I guess I’ll have to sell and use losses another year, which means I’ll need some gains! Gah.

Dear IRS
Dear IRS,
I’m writing you today because I find this annual routine of submitting taxes that we, American citizens, are forced to do is a waste of time and resources. I have ideas to drastically change our tax system, but this letter is intended to ask one very basic question:
You already have data on our wages, interest, investments, and other financial data, so why do you make us fill out forms to submit with the SAME data again, only to “audit” a percentage of these submissions?
I’m sorry but the first thing I would recommend is to send me the bill, and I’ll respond with deductions, and pay the difference.
Thanks,
