I have, and do. When the labor market started to go sideways, my solution was to fire my employees and rehire them as independent contractors. Now I have no employees, no insurance issues, no payroll issues, no nothing. The savings for me has been great, and this has enabled me to pay them more. They have to deal with their own taxes now, and some HAVE had issues because they’re spending Uncle Sam’s money right when they get it, but they learn to sock it away or make quarterly payments after messing that up once or twice. Pay less, get lower quality help. Period.

Don’t you think it’d be smarter for the government to just make it easier for you to run your business rather than forcing you into using loopholes?
that would be great. Now go elect non-lunatics who are not in the tank for corporate interests and ignore culture war bs
