but the investments generate tax's. If I invest 1 million dollars to hire 10 people at 100,000 $ each, they all pay income tax's. That income tax wouldn't be collected if it weren't for the investment.
* round nubmers ** you'd pay 150,000 usd on a 1 million dollar investment cashout
federal income tax on a salary of 100,000 USD times 10 is 151,040
So the government still gets their tax's (and more if you countother ancillary tax's) AND 10 people have a job
