Yeah, itemizing barely beat the standard deduction for me too, and I ended up owing like $2,500 when normally I end up owing like $70.

Mortgage interest never should have been tax deductible. Actually, there's very little that should be tax deductible. The tax code is way out of control and all the corruption that's wrapped up in manipulating the flow of money. Deductions should be phased out over the course of say a decade; dropping by 10% of the initial value each year.
