I’ve basically stopped using the site for all the same reasons. I think it is because their engagement by real human users is near zero. In order to keep it freshfor whoever is left, like seniors hoping for an occasional pic of their grandkids, they fill it with the garbage

How would ruining the financial plans for millions of homeowners solve the problem? It's so easy to say "just increase taxes" but the reality is our spending is insane.

I have a perfect example as to why these rules are unfair. I work in the healthcare industry and a lot of the r&d is because it has to keep up with new regulations set out every year.
So the government is forcing expenses on us.... And then making us wait to deduct.
