    Kinda has a stench of “the wealthy get taxed too much 😢”

    The IRS doesn’t get that money. The IRS processes that money and prevents your lottery-ticket-buying-ass from hoarding it all, and redistributes some of that unnecessary wealth to the utilities and services were all invested in together as a society.
