From the little you wrote, I would say you're an employee of the company, not outside labor. They should be withholding taxed, paying Social Security etc on your wages. You will have to pay the full social security taxes (both yours and the employers) and all the income taxes, state and federal. You may want to speak with the IRS regarding this situation. The social security taxes are about 15% +, so the money you THINK your making your not. The company may be breaking the law and cheating you. There are very strict rules on who can be 1099'd and who is an employee.
Good luck !
