I don't disagree but I'm confused where you think I said good software excuses lobbying against pre-prepared returns. I'm fairly certain I said the opposite.
To me this is how our conversation thread goes:
Me: I hope they crash and burn
You: They actually make good products, I hope this tax stuff goes away so they can focus on their good products
Me: Nah, fuck them, I hope they crash and burn for what they've done
You: And throw their good products in the trash?
That to me sounds like you think their good products should save them from the Find Out portion of Fucking Around. Please correct me if I misunderstood you, but that's how the conversation reads to me.
man I don't want to fight about this, everyone is so fucking aggressive here and I'm sick of it.
I'm sorry my reply came off as aggressive, I truly wasn't trying to be. These times are incredibly frustrating, we just want good products from good companies that don't do fucked up shit, and that seems to be too much to ask for ?? It sucks.
But I have no problem with you personally, we're all trapped in this stupid system together. Be well, my dude. I'm sorry my reply caused you stress, it wasn't my intention.
Edit: I see that you have downvotes and want you to know they're not from me
