@IRonMaN  I think they would have to go to federal court for an injunction.  And the courts are busy these days, what with all the 85-year-old French widows who need to be deported after marrying their GI sweetheart late in life.  When you have only 677 judges, spread across 91 districts, government attorneys know it's not wise to bother them with minor problems.  

To add some details about my practice:  I have face-to-face meetings with about a third of my clients, and I do most of the data entry while we are chatting about grandkids.  The rest of my clients drop off, mail or email their stuff, and my assistant does the data entry.  I review it and print the final, which she then copies and assembles.  (Fun fact:  It doesn't matter which W-2 you attach to which return, although we try to do it right, and to remember which states don't want them anyway.)  Returns are then picked up by clients, or mailed to them.  Some of my clients I haven't seen in years, and I'm thinking of inviting them for a free visit later this year.  I have had three very competent and personable assistants in the last 35 years, and that makes all the difference.  It's difficult to find someone who wants full-time work part of the year, and part-time work the rest of the year.  But they exist.
