This huge volume of incomprehensible bull-shit isn't about who owes taxes, it's all about who doesn't owe taxes. 99% is loopholes from corporate lobbyists seeking lower taxes for corporate clients.

If the average citizen can't read and comprehend what he owes he shouldn't have to pay. No reason the code can't be a dozen understandable pages with a fair amount paid by everyone, privately and corporately.
