I think the goal of this person was to get his message out, because he wanted people to read the suicide note. Well, I read the suicide note.

Here are some of my thoughts:

So, there is a note is his writing that says, "the tax system is too complicated for even the brightest minds to understand." Well, this is true.

Think of it like this - humans made inventions and they use them. They use computers, cars, electricity, income tax code, etc.

But can anyone really explain how these things work? Not really. All these things are extremely complicated.

So, what I am saying is - "the interface for the human person on the user side is very simple." So, for example, I am typing on a keyboard - this is very simple. But can anybody actually explain how a keyboard works? Not really. It has all those microchips and things like that.

So, the income tax act is a very complicated thing. It wasn't just made by one person. It's a combination of years and decades and more than hundreds of years of many people coming together to make laws.

So, this is the problem: the people are trying to make a machine that helps people. But, what if there is a mistake in the machine? This happens all the time. A rocket ship is launched and then it crashes after 5 minutes.

A friendly robot which is made to help people can start killing people, to the horror of the scientists. This is the common theme which is covered in popular movies such as Terminator and Robocop.

So, you can think of the Income Tax Act as this artificial creation.
