Tax filled.

There’s no reason we need so many people at CRA or IRS.

Don’t tell me “oh, it’s the way we have always done it”.

Of course the process can be tedious and quite “out of place”, but just look at examples when most companies moved to computer system vs. human. Yes, there was some screwups. But the idea is, if we take that as cost of serving the citizens and we know the outcome is beneficial, why shouldn’t we?

I don’t know any companies still doing great business comparing to their time before the computers that haven’t moved to it.

We are trying to find a better way here, aren’t we?
Will let Hasan explain it.
