> Those other countries have much simpler tax codes than we do

All German readers spew out their drink in disbelief - Pardon what?

I think you're vastly under estimating how complicated the us tax code is.

[jenadine]

I have no idea about tha US tax code. An explanation would be welcome.

[rsynnott]

You just aren't appreciating just _how_ majestically bonkers the US tax system is. It is truly a work of art.

For a country which loves complaining about tax, and where half the political campaigning was traditionally about lowering tax, they sure love overcomplicating tax.

[gentooflux]

The German word for how complicated the tax code is is "die Steuerverfassungskomplexität"

[zeroonetwothree]

Was Germany one of the listed countries?

[mbreese]

Yes.
