A final point; his complaint about a twenty four year old tax law that defines who is a independent contractor and who is an employee is truly asinine. This law is an important law and it protects working people. Many companies do not want to pay benefits to employees, they want to circumvent legislation which require the payment of salutatory benefits such as vacation pay, unemployment insurance, medical benefits etc.. To get around these laws, they will try to label an employee as a contractor. The IRS has twenty questions (there is a link to this from his essay) which are used to determine whether or not an employee is a contractor or not. He may not have liked this law, but their are millions of working people who benefited from them.
