And many accountants I have run into really don't understand the code and make mistakes.

Uhmmm....100% of accountants, tax attorneys and individual filers 'make mistakes'. Every single one.

There is not an American alive that understands the code as it stands. Not one.

Every American is a lawbreaker, in this sense; since ignorance of the law is no excuse, as they say.

This system is a monstrosity, and you're continuing to defend it.

No, most returns are simple for most filers. If you don't own a business or have investment income, it is a piece of cake to file. Probably only slightly more time then registering for the rebate under the sales tax.

Probably not the entire code, but the ones relevant to them, yes there are.

Not all, but probably millions.

I am all for simplification of the code. I just think the sales tax is a stupid idea. A real stupid idea.
