It's not like money is created in the paycheck, and destroyed when you spend it. You can't put a checkmark on a $20 bill, and only tax the first time it changes hands.

The closest thing to taxing "money" instead of transactions is the property tax, and I somehow doubt that much enthusiasm could be drummed up for moving from an income (ie transaction) tax to a total holdings ( cash, funds, and assets ) property tax.
