It's getting more interesting the longer this conversation goes and I'm holding back just to see the story unfold.  My main reason for not doing it is the taxes crap; US taxes, OZ taxes, and I'm no mathmetician so it's just too much hassle as far as I'm concerned.  I was an IC a few years ago, 63% went to taxes, and I made what I'm making now as a part-time employee at a low line rate.  Add to that OZ taxes, conversion rates, etc., it's just not for me.  Along with social security, I stay in the black, but there aren't many life perks, which I'm ok with.  Skype is the other issue; I don't have it and don't want it.  I just don't feel like chasing kangaroos, no matter what they pay.  I chase all the foreigners I can deal with now, only have to do 1 account, and even though I get aggravated sometimes to the point I could spit fire, I'm not jumping from the frying pan into the fire.  I'm glat they posted the job info, it's been an interesting read if nothing else.
