Am I the only one who finds it a little odd that you can send in your taxes
for free... after which they'll most likely be OCRed and fed into a computer
for analysis... whereas eFiling your taxes, in most cases, costs ~$20? How is

the citizen?

They (over)paid huge sums for consultants to create the website..
