There’s a Tax Season Villain, and It’s Not the I.R.S. | NYT Opinion
It’s the most miserable time of the year: tax season.
Americans are about to spend millions of hours and billions of dollars filing their federal income taxes, and they are pretty sure they know who is responsible for their pain: The misanthropes at the Internal Revenue Service.
But we’re here to convince you that the I.R.S. is not the problem.
Yes, it should be easy to file taxes. And yes, it should be free. That’s how it works in the rest of the developed world, and it could very easily work that way here, too. It is absurd that America’s tax system is so antiquated and complicated that most people must pay someone else to help them pay the government.
So what is standing in the way of progress?

How Scorsese Moves the Camera With Purpose in ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ | Anatomy of a Scene
To tell the sweeping story of the Osage murders of the 1920s in “Killers of the Flower Moon” (nominated for 10 Oscars, including best picture), the director Martin Scorsese opted mostly not to sweep the camera along with the narrative.
“Dealing with the landscape and the period, I tended to have more stable images,” he said during a video interview, “images that were almost like old photographs in a way.”
But one key moment called for a change. As investigators go to Oklahoma to look into the Osage murders and disappearances, they drill down to a group of individuals they think are involved. And in this scene, the lawmen converge to arrest one person they believe they can get information from, Ernest Burkhart, played by Leonardo DiCaprio.
As Ernest sits in a pool hall/barbershop, investigators descend on the space to surround him.
“Since the characters are all circling around each other in the movie, and since the circle gets tighter and tighter, my drawing for the shot was simply a circle with an arrow. That was it,” Scorsese said.
What follows is what the director called “a circular ballet,” with the camera continually moving around Ernest as he turns repeatedly, along with investigators moving in on him from different directions.
“That was one of the most enjoyable moments, laying out that shot,” he said.
The film then cuts to an interrogation room, with Ernest on one side of the frame, investigators on the other. This returns the movie back to more stable images, but with depth. The wide shot looks almost as if it’s playing out on a stage, the players shown full body and arranged in a kind of uneasy tableau.
“Once scenes and stories like this end up in police stations or interrogation rooms, I find the images become flat and uninteresting,” Scorsese said. “And so I said, let’s be dealing with angles that are boring into the characters. Not boring images, but boring, like really focused on them.”
Scorsese made the shots more head on, but also employs a passing-of-time technique that he said was inspired by the 1947 Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger drama “Black Narcissus.” At one moment during the interrogation, the scene cuts to Ernest in a medium shot and fades to black. Then it fades right back in on him standing in the same place.
”We may have faded away for an hour to two hours,” Scorsese said. “You don’t expect to come fading back in on the same image,” he said.
In telling this story, the filmmaker concluded, “what I had to do was fight a tendency to over-design camera interpretation. In so doing, a tension is held in the frame.”

We Need to Get Back to 1980 on Immigration | NYT Opinion
Why have Republicans and Democrats moved so far apart on immigration? That’s the question that drives the Opinion video above.
We are publishing this as President Biden comes under extraordinary pressure to curb surging illegal immigration at the southwestern border. Republicans have held up further military aid to Ukraine, demanding more border security in exchange. And this month House Republicans opened impeachment hearings against Alejandro Mayorkas, the homeland security secretary, accusing him of intentionally failing to enforce immigration laws.
A group of senators from both parties has been trying to negotiate a deal that would address the Republican demands for a border crackdown. But while the measures under discussion might go some way toward lowering illegal immigration — and even that is a matter of fierce debate — they don’t pretend to address all the wide-ranging, chronic problems with the country’s immigration system.
Bipartisan deals on immigration policy have been
