Taxes
Don’t Have To Be Complicated…
…….a recent report shows that the instructions
have increased from about 40 pages to 126 pages since 1975.
But you don’t have to make taxes complicated because
most taxpayers are not complicated. I just take last year’s
return. Put in the figures for this year. And look in the
instructions under New Changes To The Tax Law for anything
that might apply to me. I’m done in 45 minutes, tops.
