    Most of us are paid by a company, which is reported to irs. You can’t futz with that. People who get tipped, on the other hand …. There’s nothing but you conscience in the way. Or of course gig workers can play with what they write off, just like any other company. You know, it’s really only those of use paid a salary, whether hourly or annually, who have to follow the rules

      Right, but when they go after people who fraudulently write things off (either intentionally or not), who do you think they go after? The gig worker, or the multi-millionaire with a stable of attorneys?
