The writer of the following sentence gives the appearance that proofreading has become outlawed: "Block claimed the ads left a false impressed that its preparers were not well trained, nor were they tax experts." The judges in the Kansas City Federal court, on the other hand, provide an impression that a federal judge needs neither knowledge or experience. We all know that "justice is blind" on occasion, but I wasn't aware that judges are required to be ignorant, blind and absurdly uninformed. Anyone familiar with Block's system knows that ALL its tax preparers take a 3 month course, and are required to prepare at least 30 practice tax returns, take numerous exams and quizzes, midterms and finals, both open and closed book. You do not need to be a Block employee to know that. I think that the average court, city council and government would be greatly improved if experienced tax preparers were to make up such bodies. That's because, to be a tax preparer, you need to have measure of judgment, a sense of balance, a sense of right and wrong, and understading of numerous subject matters such as finance, insurance, law, accounting, bookkeeping, healthcare, computers, business, in addition to tax knowledge, math skills, people skills, and patience. Many of these attributes are somewhat lacking in the legal and political professions at large. True enough, there are aspects of tax preparation that include repetitive and easily acquired data entry skills, but that's only a small part of the story.
