These examples aren't wrong but you might be overstating their impact on the economy as a whole.

E.g. the overwhelming majority of people do not pay solely for tax advice, or have a dietician, etc. Corporations already crippled their customer support so there's no remaining damage to be dealt.

Your tax example won't move the needle on people who pay to have their taxes done in their entirety.
