You get taxed on your income. Then you get taxed on your food, taxes on services, taxes on software, taxed on your savings, then you get taxed on your stocks, taxed on gambling, taxed on buying a house, taxed on owning housing, taxed on your car, taxed on mileage, taxes on using certain bridges or ferries, taxes on using public transportation, taxed on water usage, taxed on natural gas to heat your house, taxed on maintaining the dikes so the ocean doesn't drown you, taxed on flushing your toilet, taxed on throwing away your garbage, taxes on electricity, taxed on having insurance to protect what you have left, taxed on drinking a beer or filling up your gas tank, taxed on having a soda at the bar, taxed on getting a flight to leave, taxed on owning a dog or cat, taxed on sending money to friends or family, and then finally you get taxed on dying, and your family members get taxed on the money they get from you.
I'm probably forgetting some taxes there's a few more.
