Look, if you can scrounge up a "Cliff Notes on Tax Loopholes for the $75,000K and Unders" I'll read it, but hiring a $300 bean counter to save $400 on taxes isn't worth it to me or a lot of other people. I do like what you're saying in principle, though: People ought to be educated about money. As it is, they're not doing it on their own, so yeah, maybe math teachers should be saddled with a little extra tax-law curriculum. Offer a few courses in the junior colleges. It's good to know these things. Of course, once it starts to put dents in the government's wallet...
