[quote=meadandale][quote=patientrenter]If we want to accommodate gaming of income taxes by the self-employed[/quote]
I’m not gaming my income taxes. I pay an exorbitant amount of income taxes at both the state and federal level.

I didn’t say you were gaming your taxes, meadandale. To know whether you did or didn’t, I’d have to know your financial situation better than any mere blog poster.
I too pay a very high % of my (real) income in taxes. Some people with the same income may consider the amount of taxes exorbitant, some consider it fair, and some consider it too low. We live in a society governed by uniform laws, and regardless of how we feel, I think people with the same income should pay the same taxes. Our feelings about taxes shouldn’t allow us to pay less than others.
