Maybe you can start at the city level and move your way up. This is a great way to do it in the States.

Absolutely would not work in the US (as, unfortunately, most public services). There's already a huge lobby from TurboTax and other players. All countries that got to this level of automation already had publicly developed, free software for tax payers previously.
