One of the things that bothers me most about all of these taxes is the enormous waste of effort and intelligence that goes in to complying with tax laws and avoiding paying taxes.

Thousands of very intelligent peoples’ entire career is wasted as accountants and tax lawyers.

These people could have had productive careers where their lives would have meant far more to society and advanced humankind far more.

Agreed. And how many other careers have been wasted to comply with other onerous government regulations?
