I have to agree. The parent seems to be basing his comment on some form of logic or reason, neither of which seem to be prevalent in government dealings. Not recognizing the burden of 1099ing every entity that I do $600 of business with shows how disconnected the author of this particular bill is from small-businesses. The good news is, there ARE a few politicians who have seen the error in this bill and are attempting to do something about it.
As a small-business owner myself, I can sympathize with the OP about having to get all businessy with his website. Being a small-business and "doing it right" can be a lot of work. You either do the work yourself, or you pay someone to do it. There are plenty of ways to go wrong if you're not on top of it.
