Because the money I play with has been taxed already, I take it on vacation and add it to their income, which may or may not be taxed again, which then goes into the ecosystem and is taxed again at sales level.

Let me put it another way.

Taxes suck. If I pay them on income I should not pay them again when gifting taxed income to someone else.
