And don't give you suggested values ahead of time based on the W-2 and 1099 data they already have. Also, I recall having to use the full 1040 when I had 1099 income--the 1040EZ is really just streamlined for people who had a single W-2 all year.
Yes, having 1099 is a big pain. But most people are W-2, so it's not a big deal.
When you take a 1099 job, you include in your rate the extra money that you'll need to do the extra paperwork.
Similarly, I never consider the money that I need to pay for taxes "mine". This is why I am not bitter about taxes. When I ask for salary, I decide how much money I want (or can get), calculate how much of that the government is going to take, and ask for the amount of "real pay" that ends up being the amount of take-home pay I want. That way, income tax is my employer's problem, not mine.
