My experience was -- collecting and reporting sales tax, city/county tried to collect property/inventory tax, and reporting to Texas Parks and Wildlife.
This was quite a while ago. Things are much worse now. Keeping books and hiring an accountant/bookkeeper...never got that far. Didn't care to know exactly how far in the hole I could go. Besides, as has been stated, IRS code won't allow too much of that.
It makes no sense to me to be represented as a money loosing enterprise with the Legislators.
Moved from the city to the country for fear of "the Villagers coming up the hill with torches in hand". There's way too much of people telling others how to behave behind closed doors in Austin. 180 degrees from the good old days.
