As a Statuatory Employee, my W-2 shows that I only paid Social Security and Medicare taxes on half of my Federal income.

Does this make sense?

I converted my home to a rental property in 2007 and finally sold it in 2009. It has lost money as a rental property (but better than just letting it sit there). Do I use the rental depreciation basis for the house as the basis for sale? Do I get to deduct my prior unallowed rental losses?

I accidentally applied my refund to my 2009 taxes but wanted a refund. Is it possible to change this on my 2008 Federal return?

How does one install a typical new rubber front tire on a garden tractor? I have been able to get it half way on the hub, but the second edge is very difficult to get on.

My friend is a minister and receives a housing allowance of $25,000. Can he still deduct his mortgage and property taxes on his Schedule A?

My father wants to leave me his stocks as an inheritance. They are currently at a loss. If he passes and the investments show a loss, can I keep his basis or must I start over with the time of death?

I had Indiana state tax withheld from my gambling winnings. I am a resident of Ohio.

Can I deduct these withheld taxes from my Federal and Ohio taxes? Or is there another procedure. It seems like I shouldn't be double taxed by Ohio and Indiana.

I am not at all liberal...just a citizen who enjoys law.

The latest ruling by the Supreme Court was in regard to a woman who lost her arm because of a drug that was inadequately labeled.

Three of the Four Conservatives (Alito, Scalia, Roberts) dissented and stated that it was up to the FDA, not the jury, to decide if the label was adequate.

The idea that all that drug companies have to do is buy out the FDA to isolate them from the fundamentals of justice is bizarre to me. They actually believe that the drug company should continue to sell its product even though they know that it is unsafe and use the FDA as an excuse as to why. They claim that they couldn't change the label without FDA approval...I say stop selling the product until then...obvious logic???

How can people who make it all the way to the Supreme Court really be so foolish. They seem to have no sense of reality.

Knowledgable Opinions Only Please.

Has anyone ever heard of Hubhub.org? It sounds like a scam...a pyramid scheme that takes advantage of people who want to help others. But I can't find much independent info on it? Anybody ever heard of it?

Even after the engine is up to temperature, my '99 Acura TL only provides heat to the passenger compartment when at a high RPM. I had it flushed and filled but still experience the same problem. It may just need a more thorough flush, but is there any other possible reason for this problem? Thanks.

My lawn is a disaster. I need to start over. What is the best method for getting rid of the current grass/weeds and starting over?
