Minnesota state tax computation error

Turbo Tax does not correctly calculate the standard deduction for Minnesota state taxes.  The standard deduction in Minnesota is reduced, via formula, for higher income individuals. Your software failed to calculate the correct standard deduction for my Minnesota state tax filing for two consecutive years, 2019 and 2020, as I've just been informed by the state of Minnesota. I owe $1000, although fortunately MN is not charging a penalty.  That said, I expect the software to calculate correctly or I haven't gotten value for what I paid for.  This calculation needs to be corrected.  I expect I'll experience the same problem with my 2021 Minnesota state taxes.
