ShouldItDoThat
Your proposition is nonsense.
It would have force if you were referring to taxes (eg VAT) paid by people who receive state benefits. ie Money given to them by the state for which they are not required to give anything in return.
In contrast, Crab and others employed directly by the state, or whose income is derived from the state (eg suppliers of goods, sub-contractors), receive payment in return for selling something of theirs to the state: Either their services or their goods.
