Those "write offs" you're referring to are few and far between like equipment you purchase to run your business.

If I may I take exception to the expression "that is the price they pay for having employees do THEIR work for them."

When I did in home daycare I wrote off all sorts of things. Some of my mortage, my phone, my electric, my water, my sewage, and some of my transportation.

When the time comes that you get Social Security or Medicare you can rest assured that your employer paid for half of it.

Exactly...that was the point I was trying to make. (obviously not very well)


I would think someone who did books for small businesses would know that. Huh!
