    Too bad the Belastingdienst (Dutch Taxservice) is a massive shitshow on pretty much anything else. Their hardware is so damn old new tax laws can’t be passed, because it would break the systems. Of course this is more the fault of shitty upper management and poor political will to do anything about it.

      They should pass laws that intentionally break the IT systems, then you’ll eventually end up with an IT system that doesn’t break.

        They tried that (not intentionally) but the response was basically “bro we can’t, you’ll just have to wait until we update it. Should be done in about 5 years”.
