Money should stay in the economy, not go to the government. Where do you get the idea from that the more the government gets, the better for "the people"?
Government will spend it carelessly and/or steal - whether it's through running a costly war while friends own fighter jet and tank factories, or more blatantly: by giving the money away in trillions to their Wall Street friends.
