Just think of how many different taxes and duties are paid for instance between gross pay by an employer and spending some of it on a pint down the pub (alcohol duty and VAT), especially if you drove to the pub (fuel duty and vat, road tax).
One way or another they claw back most of what you earn. If they really wanted to simplify things they could require the employer to pay them first and they give you what's left. Pocket money for being a nice net contributing citizen.
