I don't imagine too many self-employed people have 529s.
You're right that self-employed people (and "contractors") get screwed over by the federal tax system. I remember what it was like to be a "contractor". The solution isn't to construct a tax system that the wealthy get the vast majority of the benefits from that the self-employed can also occasionally claim.
HSAs are a racket, too.
But you knew I'd say that. ;-)
Cheers,
Scott.

HSAs, a snake-oil favorite of right-wingers, are tax-sheltered savings schemes that typically come with high-deductible health insurance policies attached. If you need a doctor, you can dip into the savings account, because you’re going to have to pay thousands of dollars out of your own pocket before the insurance kicks in.
