Don't worry, they're an equal opprotunity discriminator:

In about 30 years, I expect all these people who are in power now and
just don't know how to learn new things to be dead/retired, so that
people who can find their nether regions without needing both hands free
+ a torch will be able to set things up.
Like taxes; honestly, what kind of DoRRD is that? I have a complete set
of paper + numbers, and the gov't has the same numbers (sent directly
from my employers). If these numbers indicate a basic refund, they
won't send it. The only thing I could do that would negate that refund
is to declare foreign income or property (in fact, most of the tax code
appears to be about corner cases that only people working the system
use!). The common case seems to be that people make a certain amount (I
always make less than the minimum, and I always say as such on the tax
forms, but I always have to file and get it back a year later without
interest!). Why can't there be a nice, official government website?
No, you have to go through some kind of Efile front end, hope it isn't
recording personal information, etc.
How can you tell I just filed taxes? They owed me a lot this year, too :p
