Here the DURS (Slovene IRS) does our taxes.

I'll get €200 back so I really don't care if they were done right

Can't be! I'm confident they just forgot this little symbol from your tax papers: -



(I got only €4 back. Lucky one!)

"The tax code is so complex and the forms so complicated that I know that I cannot have any confidence that I know what is being requested and therefore I cannot and do not know, and I suspect a great many Americans cannot know, whether or not their tax returns are accurate," he wrote."

Uh, I know that my taxes are done accurately. Probably because I am not trying to scam the system with questionable deductions and loopholes.

He left off the unknown knowns. I'm sure there are things I don't know that I know.

Here in the UK (unless you are self employed) your employer deducts tax at source by referring to the individuals tax code allowance.

Much simpler but it does mean you pay your tax prior to the release of your wage.

Mmm... how could you know how much to pay in taxes calculated against your wage before getting the wage itself?
This is a clear example of known unknown knowns... You know, the things that you are supposed to know you don't know, but instead you know. It's so simple
