That's fine, I was mostly just putting out what I believe are reasonable expectations on what the new congress can accomplish.

I have high expectations for them and I do think they should create/pass legislation for the IRS to create and maintain simplified filings. But I also realize that it's a uphill battle for them to get the lame duck Trump admin to implement such a law.

I think expectations for congress is to pass popular laws but don't be disappointed when the Republicans filibuster, Trump vetoes, or his admin fails to execute on such legislation.
