How is it a mistake? It makes tax dodging easier and reduces the ability of the IRS to run audits. Seems intentional to me.

yeah it's a "mistake" definitely, they just weren't thinking and did a little oopsy poopsy, nothing malicious to worry about, just a little whoopsie doodlerino

Yeah I fucking hate this stupidity/incompetence rethoric. We're way past all that: this is all done with intentional malice. Hell, the malice is the main motivator for these people.

I'd love to see the look of people's faces celebrating this when they realize they still need to pay taxes and the process is going to become much more annoying due to IRS being understaffed
