> Don't you get the value of the money back for all taxation, according to any theory that approves of taxation? Roughly speaking, anyone paying more in taxes than the per capita spending is probably not receiving the full value of their taxes. We see this where most welfare (Pell Grants, SNAP benefits, Obamacare, etc) and tax credit schemes (CTC, electric car credit, etc) phase out as people pay more taxes.
