  1. Self-employment taxes (Social Security and Medicare) are approximately 14.1% of your net profit. That's on top of the Federal income taxes. This is universal for all US citizens, not just in TX.
  2. Read about self employed tax filing: http://taxipay.blogspot.com/2008/04/tax-filing-by-self-employed-sole.html
