pvn, the guys picking the pennies are paying the OP.
If I own an office, and I rent it to you. You are paying me not the other way around. Even though you are making money on my office( because ure a lawyer or something) I still dont see how Im paying you.

It's not easy to get around the problem by treating the laborers as independent contractors. The gov't will say that they are, in fact, employees and charge him back payroll taxes (and some hefty penalties and interest).
