Pay a service to get to the front of the line to get on a phone call with the IRS? Not to expose myself as a member of the burgoise or something, but I pay a CPA to deal with that entire problem.

You don't find it a little unfair that doing something the government makes you do is so Byzantine and fraught with error that there is an entire cottage industry around doing it? When the only reason it's so awful is because of policy choices largely out of our control?

What if we deliberately slowed your car down, threw our hands up because "it is what it is", and then said you could fix it by paying $500? Wow, we solved the problem!
