> Another reason why it aint gonna happen is that it's what the majority of Germans voted for.

In 2005, Angela Merkel (CDU) gave the campaign promise to simplify the taxation system immensely (using a system that the renowned export Paul Kirchhof (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Kirchhof) developed). Independently, at the same time, Friedrich Merz, Merkel's "frenemy" at the CDU, independently made his own proposals to strongly simplify the taxation system ("Bierdeckelsteuer" [beer coaster tax]; meaning that for a typical citizen the whole tax declaration should fit on a beer coaster).

I know a lot of young people who voted for the CDU in the 2005 election exactly because of the ideas of Paul Kirchhof to simplify the taxation system despite otherwise not being attracted to the election goals of the CDU.

In 2005, the CDU became the strongest party in the German Federal Parliament. But Angela Merkel and the CDU broke this campaign promise. In other words: these politicians are nothing but mere fraudsters who deserve to rot in the jail for breaking such a campaign promise.

Thus: The problem is not that the Germans did not vote for this, but the problem is that the politicians are fraudsters breaking election promises and thus belong in jail instead of the parliament.
