Shouldn't the people then also receive a full account from the government on the money the gov earned and how it was spent?
No.
Let me rephrase your question:
A thief comes into your house and demands a list from you of everything you own. The law of the land only allows them to steal 35%, so they need that list. They then steal that amount from you: 35% of your cash and jewelry, 35% of your stove, a skosh over 1/3rd of your children, one of your three cars plus the taillight of a second, etc.. Doesn't the thief then owe you an accounting of all the fences they sell your goods to, and the bookies they pay off with your jewelry and cash?
The answer to both your question and my rephrasing of it is "no."
Or if you prefer, "Hell No."
The reason why the answer is "no" is because the question is trying to solve the wrong crime.
