as a sole proprietor you make withdrawals from the business which will be treated as distributions to soleproprietor. estimated taxes, et al should be set up and paid,at the end of the year all withdrawls are considered salary subject to federal and local taxes

While that is accurate, that doesn't preclude a sole proprietor from paying himself a salary. Sole proprietorships can have employees.
