Fix The Tax Code Friday: Standard Deduction for Self-Employed
On Problogger yesterday, a few folks commented that the list of potential deductions for bloggers (one of many groups of self-employed persons) was too long or too complicated.
Which made me think. It also leads me to today’s Fix the Tax Code Friday question:
Should there be a separate Standard Deduction alternative for self-employed persons? It could function just like the existing deduction, but calculated at a higher rate for those persons filing a Schedule C. Or there could be some other criteria. Thoughts?
