Because tax is used as a mechanism to achieve policy objectives. Such as ensuring there isn't a permanent under class in your society.
Frankly you've created your own little paradigm that income shouldn't be taxed twice for no other reason than to support your previously held position. Taxes are doubled up all the time. It's not some state of nature by which income can only be taxed once.
