That is true that in some countries the employee income is taxed at source, but it doesn't mean that the tax is not paid by the employee just because the company sends it on his or hers behalf. It is happening this way because governments don't trust people that they would send that money each month. What employees pay should be a completely separated equation, as this is what employee makes with their own hard work, not the corporation.
