There are many parts to the tax code which, in theory, direct the ways that money is spent on the earner's side and as tax income on the government's side. For instance, when the government collects gas taxes, portions of monies collected go to building roads and are passed through to the state governments. Those of us who own homes enjoy the mortgage interest exemption, which encourages home ownership. Many tax decisions are not that clear cut since exemptions and percentages of tax are attached to bills as a one off to support an industry or other entity that the congress deems worthy. Lots of lobbying by these groups--pharma companies, oil companies, banking, health insurance--leads to influence in how the tax bill is written and enforced. Over time, these add-ons have caused a haystack of tax rules and circumstances that would be hard to unwind.
