Pass-Through Business Taxes Previous law: Businesses organized as sole proprietorships, LLCs and partnerships don’t pay corporate tax rates. Instead, the owners pay individual income taxes on their share of business income – they’re called pass-through business taxes. Those tax rates are the same as the individual income tax rates.

Again, we get all our news from media and then respond. The above is an untold story and is major!

I have often said we should all be self employed, not employees. Personal Services Incorporated.

“Independent contracting” is the way to go.

“Employment” is for suckers.

The problem is all this is temporary and the libs will want to kill it..........................

It’s hardly an “untold story”, all this has been around for months for anyone interested.

And don’t forget to consider the 15.3% self-employment tax (for socialist security and medicare). That is basically unchanged for 2018.
