@PositiveNoise idk, seems to me the big countries suffer from too much legislative capture for that.
I live in a country where I do my taxes for free with one click and we don't use paypal because we can all make free bank- to- bank deposits that clear in less than an hour.
And the reason the US doesn't have these basic things I've had for a decade is because of lobbying from Turbotax and the like.
