    No,it's called tax optimization and is perfectly legal .

    Did I ask a simple question: Do Mega Carriers Hire on 1099? The answer to that question is Yes OR No, not the speech you wrote nor I am asking to do any business with you. I would never even respond to people with such attitude, especially, when they try to act smart which they aren't. If you didn't have the right answer, simply should have ignored my post. I was not asking to validate my idea NOR any legal advise. You and some others are just trying to bully a newbie and I won't take that.

    I had a valid question since I don't want to be sitting like a dumb person in a truck and putting miles on the vehicle. I want to learn and be the business person who can grow and expand. I think like a business person since that's all I have done from day 1 in my past 14 years of working history.

    If you wanted to be a solution and not a problem then you should have been like chinatown and some others who are respectful, provide an answer, and not assume anything without knowing the person. If you don't know the answer, don't spin the question and take it out of context. Peace!!!

    You can't figure out that I'm politely telling you that you're wrong?

    I'm sorry I came across a little strong. There are many companies that misclassify, and it is a big issue. Many drivers here, if not most, feel passionately about it. This profession is the deadliest in the country, and employers are willing to send out employees, in the guise of being "independent contractors" out there with no protection, and this gets our goat.

    unless it paid very well, I don't see how a 1099 anywhere would be beneficial. Why not buy your own truck and do your own thing?
