Ebay rant...

Its not ebay that is doing that its the federal government. This started a couple years ago. They are required to 1099 anyone that makes a certain income through online sales. I think its 20k up gets 1099.
As much as I hate taxes its only fair that online sellers have to pay tax too.
I would love to see a flate rate tax in this country. You shouldn't have to pay a higher rate of tax simply because you make more money. Its like getting penalized for working harder.

Welcome to the Republican party....now get out there and vote! I owe Ebay $2.50 for 'sellers fees' and I disconnected the paypal account from auto deduction so they keep banging me for the $2.50. Well, they F'n stole (auto deducted) $500 from me 2 years ago so they can keep asking.....

One year I made a little more than I usually do and I just made the next higher tax bracket. I got dinged way more than made doing the OT! My tax person said if that happens again, make a few Goodwill runs or charitable contributions to get your gross income right under the bracket. It may cost you a few hundred but could save thousands on your tax bill.
