If an employer never sends a W-2 form to you are you responsible for filing it?

Yes. You must file your tax return on time even if you don't receive your W-2 form. Form W-2 is Wage and Tax Statement. It's an IRS form that your employer is required to provide or send to you by January 31st. If January 31st falls on a weekend, then the deadline is extended to the next business day. For 2008 W-2 forms, the deadline was February 2, 2009. For 2009 W-2 forms, the deadline is Monday, February 1, 2010.
If you don't receive your W-2 form by the deadline, contact your employer. If you still haven't received your W-2 by mid-February, contact the IRS at 1-800-TAX-FORM(1-800-829-1040) to report this situation. If you have your last paystub, refer to it in filling out Form 4852(Substitute for Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement) and attach it to your return.

How are income taxes collected?
Income taxes are collected through withholding (money the employer takes out of your pay and sends to the federal or state tax agencies) and direct payments (the taxpayer sends a check or money order). If taxes are owed and the taxpayer has not paid, then (just like any other debt) they will garnish your bank accounts, paycheck, refunds, etc.
Do you need a W4 when you file for your taxes with TurboTax?
I suspect you mean a W-2, as you use a W-4 to provide withholding information to your employer. Actually, you don't need a w-2 to file, since your company sends a computed copy to the IRS. But you do need to know your income, withholdings, etc. All of which may be available someplace else (as in your last pay stub). You never really need a W-2, or 1099 (or any form) from someone else to file your taxes....in fact, whether someone sends you one, or not, if you have income you MUST file your taxes. However, it is best to wait to file until you have received your w-2 in order to be certain that all was reported correctly. Companies are only required to mail them by January 31. In addition, Congress has not yet approved the tax tables, so early filing will just put you on the incoming stack until they do, estimated to be mid-February.
What is FICA the same as?
FICA stands for Federal Insurance Contributions Act. Basically, it's taxes used as payment into the Social Security and Medicare benefits programs. This is how you contribute to those programs. When you're an employee, you pay half and your employer pays half. Your half is deducted from your paycheck, then your employer adds their half and sends the entire amount in on your behalf when they pay all the other payroll taxes. Self-employed people don't have an employer to pay half, so they pay the entire amount for their Social Security and Medicare taxes.
