This is disgusting, sharing my personal information with all sort of Third World countries.

Instead of waiting for the government to do anything about it, we should start the ball rolling right now.

What about a good old Freep to these accounting firms?

How many Americans will agree to have their personal information "images" sent all over the world?

If the word gets out, this will stop. The customer outrage will shame these businesses into stopping this practice.

I'm e-mailing my accountant right now: "Don't even think about outsourcing my tax return next year."

Hey, the insurance companies already do it. You just *think* the IRS has 'personal' data. What about your health insurance company? They have all sorts of personal data...it's being outsourced as you type...

"This is disgusting, sharing my personal information with all sort of Third World countries."

I can see a tax revolt on the horizon if this gets wide play in the media.

Supposedly we could try to repeal the law of supply and demand. Or ban the use of international data circuits. Or we could follow the socialists in Europe and demand that databases be licensed and periodically reviewed by the government.
