Same place it goes now: to fund the government services: roads, police, fire, library, etc.

tax payer pays a tax once ... goes to government, then to low income person, back out into the economy.
roads: revenue from vehicle registration tax, sales tax; gas tax
police: city funding, property tax, sales tax
fire: same as above; some are funded through
subscriptions
library: combination state, city, fed
Everyone does pay a tax, even the low income person who put fuel in their car or bought clothes for their child and paid rent.
