      Oh they did, but for rich people. Rich people, titans of industry, incredibly smart and deserve every penny they’ve ripped from a dead workers hand. But also too dum to do taxie waxies.

        That’s the exact opposite of the situation. The tax code is so outrageously complicated and obtuse that only the rich can afford the sort of accounting to take advantage of it.
