gtill,
Yes, the state wants a cut every time wealth or labor is earned or swapped.
Any time you trade a mango to Pam for eggs, you are operating a black market ring.
I am being somewhat facetious as most states exclude Agricultural goods and subsistence farming but the feds did step in during the 80s to squash businesses from bartering.
To draw a clear analogy, just think of the state as pimps.
And your W2 form as Huggy Bear saying: "Gimme my money B**ch!"
And just know, that the more taxes you've paid, the more you have been pimped out and b-slapped.
