The United States has a tax system for Employees ( includes most working Americans)
and a tax system for Business Owners.
Employees are have very limited write-offs.
Businesses Owners engaged in earning (or working toward earning) profits, are entitled to a wide variety of legally deductible business expenses in their pursuit of that income and profit.
First, a little background on Americas tax system or should I say tax systems, since we have two tax systems in America.
The first type of Taxpayer is the Employee.
Employees, or W-2 wage earners, have a J.O.B. and work for someone else. Most taxpayers fall into this category.
They have very few tax deductions available to them, usually just:
Mortgage interest & Real Estate taxes,
Standard deductions for dependents,
Gifts to church or charity and
Contributions to a retirement plan.
Employees, follow a three-step process:
Step 1: Work hard to earn a decent wage.
Step 2: Immediately lose a huge chunk of those hard-earned wages to taxes.
Step 3: Then you get to live on whatever is left after taxes are withheld.

The second type of Taxpayer is the Business Owner.
Business Owners, on the other hand, get to write-off a ton of expenses.
Business Owners have a very different three-step process:
Step 1: Earn revenue from selling goods or services,
Step 2: Spend whatever they need to on operating expenses to keep the business financially
solid.
Step 3: Then, pay taxes only on whatever is left over.
Here's a long list of deductions commonly available to a Business Owner.
Mortgage interest or Rent
Gas, electric, water and sewer
Cleaning crews to clean and empty the trash
Computers, copiers,
Fax machines
Telephones
Advertising
Paper, pens
Postage
Business account banking fees
Desks, sofas and other furniture
Business Credit card fees
Depreciation
Painting, wallpaper, carpeting and
Repairs/remodeling
Legal and professional services
Bad debts (accrual method)
Phones bills, cell-phones,
And just about any other expense that qualifies as ordinary and necessary to
operate their business.
If you operate an Internet eCommerce Business, your deductions might also include:
Internet access fees
Merchant discount fees
Web hosting fees
Internet service
Extended-warranty costs
Database backup services
Ink and Toner cartridges for printers
Software used for business
If you operate an Insurance or Real Estate Business, your deductions might also include:
Advertising

Professional fees

Signs and promotional materials
If You are an Employee, How Much are You Really Paying in Taxes?
The answer may astound you!
Taxes represent by far the single bill the average American employee pays! The amount withheld from your paycheck for taxes before you even see it is probably more than your mortgage or rent, PLUS your car payment, PLUS your food costs, and PLUS your clothing expenses -- combined!
When you add together Federal taxes, State taxes, Social Security taxes, Medicare taxes, sometimes County or City taxes, and all the rest, if you are like the average wage earner in America, you could easily be losing between 40 and 50 percent of your hard earned
wages to taxes, before you even see your paycheck!
Now, most people believe in paying their fair share of taxes, but do you think half of your hard-earned wages is your fair share?
A home business will allow you to deduct many of the expenses that you already pay but just don't deduct.
